For two3×3matricesAandB, letA+B=2B'and3A+2B=I3,whereBis the transpose ofBandI3is3×3identity matrix. Then :

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Given A+B=2 B T

AT+BT=2B

     B=AT+BT2

=A+BT+AT2=2BT

2A+AT=3BT

     A=3BT-AT2

3A+2B=I3......i

      33BT-AT2+2AT+BT2=I3

    3BT+2BT2+2AT+BT2=I3

      11BT-AT=2I3.......ii

Equationi+ii

35B=7I3

 B=I35

11 I35-A=2I3

     11I35-2I3=A

    A=I35

      5A=5B=I3

       10A+5B=3I3
