Assume $X, Y, Z, W$ and $P$ are matrices of order $2 \times n$, $3 \times k$, $2 \times p$, $n \times 3$ and $p \times k$, respectively. Choose the correct answer. The restriction on $n, k$ and $p$ so that $PY + WY$ will be defined are:
Solution :
Given Variables & Initial Matrix Orders
Based on the problem statement, we define the dimensions of the matrices as follows:
- Matrix $P$: $p \times k$
- Matrix $Y$: $3 \times k$
- Matrix $W$: $n \times 3$
Step 1: Conditions for Matrix Multiplication
For the product of two matrices $A_{m \times n}$ and $B_{p \times q}$ to be defined, the number of columns in $A$ must equal the number of rows in $B$ (i.e., $n = p$). The resulting matrix will have the dimension $m \times q$.
Step 2: Analyzing $PY$
We are given $P$ has order $p \times k$ and $Y$ has order $3 \times k$.
For the product $PY$ to be defined, the number of columns of $P$ must equal the number of rows of $Y$ [Per Matrix Multiplication Rule]:
$$k = 3$$
The order of the resulting matrix $PY$ is $p \times k$.
Step 3: Analyzing $WY$
We are given $W$ has order $n \times 3$ and $Y$ has order $3 \times k$.
For the product $WY$ to be defined, the number of columns of $W$ (which is $3$) must equal the number of rows of $Y$ (which is $3$). Since $3 = 3$, the product $WY$ is always defined for any $n, k$.
The order of the resulting matrix $WY$ is $n \times k$.
Step 4: Conditions for Matrix Addition
For the sum $PY + WY$ to be defined, the matrices $PY$ and $WY$ must have the same order [Per Matrix Addition Rule].
Order of $PY = p \times k$
Order of $WY = n \times k$
Equating the dimensions: $$p \times k = n \times k$$ This implies: $$p = n$$
Step 5: Synthesis of Constraints
From Step 2, we obtained $k = 3$.
From Step 4, we obtained $p = n$.
Final Solution: The restrictions on $n, k,$ and $p$ such that $PY + WY$ is defined are $k = 3$ and $p = n$.

I'm a mathematics' teacher. My goal is to teach you how you can think out a solution rather than roboting your way out. We will dive deep into concepts of mathematics and come out as a well learned and scrupulous student. I am ready to clear your hurdles with most accurate way. I have taught at many academies for JEE preparations. In addition to it I have taught online in UrbanPro from past 4 years.
Suman is an awesome teacher and connects well with the student and gets them to grasp concepts and be interested in the subject. Highly recommend him for math.
