If $A = \begin{bmatrix} 2 & -1 \\ -7 & 4 \end{bmatrix}$ and $B = \begin{bmatrix} 4 & 1 \\ 7 & 2 \end{bmatrix}$,then which of the following is correct?

If $A = \begin{bmatrix} 3 & \sqrt{3} & 2 \\ 4 & 2 & 0 \end{bmatrix}$ and $B = \begin{bmatrix} 2 & -1 & 2 \\ 1 & 2 & 4 \end{bmatrix}$,verify that $(kB)^{\prime} = kB^{\prime}$,where $k$ is any constant.

Express the following matrix as the sum of a symmetric and a skew-symmetric matrix: $\left[\begin{array}{cc}3 & 5 \\ 1 & -1\end{array}\right]$

What are the values of $(x, y, z, t)$,if $3\begin{bmatrix} x & y \\ z & t \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} x & 6 \\ -1 & 2t \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix} 4 & x+y \\ z+t & 3 \end{bmatrix}$?

Two farmers,Ramkishan and Gurcharan Singh,cultivate only three varieties of rice: Basmati,Permal,and Naura. The sales (in Rupees) of these varieties of rice by both farmers in the months of September and October are given by the following matrices $A$ and $B$.
September Sales (in Rupees)
$A = \begin{bmatrix} \text{Basmati} & \text{Permal} & \text{Naura} \\ 10,000 & 20,000 & 30,000 \\ 50,000 & 30,000 & 10,000 \end{bmatrix} \begin{matrix} \\ \text{Ramkishan} \\ \text{Gurcharan Singh} \end{matrix}$
October Sales (in Rupees)
$B = \begin{bmatrix} \text{Basmati} & \text{Permal} & \text{Naura} \\ 5,000 & 10,000 & 6,000 \\ 20,000 & 10,000 & 10,000 \end{bmatrix} \begin{matrix} \\ \text{Ramkishan} \\ \text{Gurcharan Singh} \end{matrix}$
$(i)$ Find the combined sales in September and October for each farmer in each variety.
$(ii)$ Find the decrease in sales from September to October.
$(iii)$ If both farmers receive $2\%$ profit on gross sales,compute the profit for each farmer and for each variety sold in October.

The value of $\cos \alpha$ is . . . . . . if $A+A^{\prime}=I$,where $A = \begin{bmatrix} \sin \alpha & -\cos \alpha \\ \cos \alpha & \sin \alpha \end{bmatrix}$.
