# Q7.    Find X and Y, if            (i) $X + Y = \begin{bmatrix} 7 &0 \\ 2 &5 \end{bmatrix}$ and $X - Y = \begin{bmatrix} 3 &0 \\ 0 &3 \end{bmatrix}$

(i) The given matrices are

$X + Y = \begin{bmatrix} 7 &0 \\ 2 &5 \end{bmatrix}$     and    $X - Y = \begin{bmatrix} 3 &0 \\ 0 &3 \end{bmatrix}$

$X + Y = \begin{bmatrix} 7 &0 \\ 2 &5 \end{bmatrix}.............................1$

$X - Y = \begin{bmatrix} 3 &0 \\ 0 &3 \end{bmatrix}.............................2$

Adding equation 1 and 2, we get

$2 X = \begin{bmatrix} 7 &0 \\ 2 &5 \end{bmatrix}$ $+ \begin{bmatrix} 3 &0 \\ 0 &3 \end{bmatrix}$

$2 X = \begin{bmatrix} 7+3 &0+0 \\ 2+0 &5+3 \end{bmatrix}$

$2 X = \begin{bmatrix} 10 &0 \\ 2 &8 \end{bmatrix}$

$X = \begin{bmatrix} 5 &0 \\ 1 &4 \end{bmatrix}$

Putting the value of X in equation 1, we get

$\begin{bmatrix} 5 &0 \\ 1 &4 \end{bmatrix}$ $+Y = \begin{bmatrix} 7 &0 \\ 2 &5 \end{bmatrix}$

$Y = \begin{bmatrix} 7 &0 \\ 2 &5 \end{bmatrix} -$  $\begin{bmatrix} 5 &0 \\ 1 &4 \end{bmatrix}$

$Y = \begin{bmatrix} 7-5 &0-0 \\ 2-1 &5-4 \end{bmatrix}$

$Y = \begin{bmatrix} 2 &0 \\ 1 &1 \end{bmatrix}$
