Ques. 1JEE Main 2025, 29 January (Evening Shift)

Let A = [aij] be a matrix of order 3 3, with aij = ( 2)i+j. If the sum of all the elements in the third row of A2 is + 2, , Z, then + is equal to :

  1. 210
  2. 280
  3. 224
  4. 168

Answer

(3) 224

Solution

aij=( 2)i( 2)j ⇒ A=uuT, u=( 2, 2, 2 2)T

A2=u(uTu)uT=14A (uTu=2+4+8)

Row 3 of A: 4, 4 2, 8 ⇒ sum =12+4 2

Row 3 of A2: 14(12+4 2)=168+56 2

∴ + =224

Answer: (3)
