From the equality of the matrices: \[ \begin{bmatrix} x + y & 2 \\ 5 & xy \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 6 & 2 \\ 5 & 8 \end{bmatrix}, \]
Step 1: Use the relationship between \( x \) and \( y \)
The given equations are: \[ x + y = 6 \quad \text{and} \quad xy = 8. \] These are the sum and product of the roots of a quadratic equation. Let the quadratic equation be: \[ t^2 - (x + y)t + xy = 0. \]
Substitute \( x + y = 6 \) and \( xy = 8 \): \[ t^2 - 6t + 8 = 0. \]
Factorize the equation: \[ t^2 - 6t + 8 = (t - 2)(t - 4) = 0. \] Thus, \( x = 2 \) and \( y = 4 \) (or vice versa).
Step 2: Compute \( \frac{24}{x} + \frac{24}{y} \)
Substitute \( x = 2 \) and \( y = 4 \): \[ \frac{24}{x} + \frac{24}{y} = \frac{24}{2} + \frac{24}{4}. \] Simplify: \[ \frac{24}{2} + \frac{24}{4} = 12 + 6 = 18. \]
Determine whether each of the following relations are reflexive, symmetric, and transitive.
Show that the relation R in the set R of real numbers, defined as
R = {(a, b): a ≤ b2 } is neither reflexive nor symmetric nor transitive.
Check whether the relation R defined in the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} as
R = {(a, b): b = a + 1} is reflexive, symmetric or transitive.
\[ \begin{bmatrix} x + y & 2 \\ 5 & xy \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 6 & 2 \\ 5 & 8 \end{bmatrix}, \]
then the value of\[ \left(\frac{24}{x} + \frac{24}{y}\right) \]
is:
