The management committee of a residential colony decided to award some of its members
38. ( say x ) for honesty, some (say y ) for helping others, ( say z ) for supervising the workers to
keep the colony neat and clean. The sum of all awardees is 12. Three times the sum of
awardees for helping others and supervision added to two times the number of awardees for
honesty is 33. If the sum of the number of awardees for honesty and supervision is twice the
number of awardees for helping others. Then
Based on the above information answer the following questions:
( i ) represent the above in matrix form ( equation ).
( ii ) find A.adjA where A be the square matrix of the above.
