Which of the following matrices can NOT be obtained from the matrix \(\begin{bmatrix} -1 &2 \\ 1 & -1 \end{bmatrix}\) by a single elementary row operation?
- \(\begin{bmatrix}0 & 1\\1 & -1\end{bmatrix}\)
- \(\begin{bmatrix}1 &-1 \\-1 & 2\end{bmatrix}\)
- \(\begin{bmatrix}-1 &2 \\-2 & 7\end{bmatrix}\)
- \(\begin{bmatrix}-1 & 2\\-1 &3\end{bmatrix}\)
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
(1) By R1→R1+R2, \(\begin{bmatrix}0 &1\\1 &-1\end{bmatrix}\) is possible
(2) By R1↔R2, \(\begin{bmatrix}1&-1\\-1&2\end{bmatrix}\) is possible
(3) This matrix can’t be obtained
(4) By R2→R2+2R1, \(\begin{bmatrix}-1&2\\-1&3\end{bmatrix}\)is possible
So, the correct option is (C): \(\begin{bmatrix}-1&2\\-2&7\end{bmatrix}\)

Matrices
Matrix:
A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers, variables, symbols, or expressions that are defined for the operations like subtraction, addition, and multiplications. The size of a matrix is determined by the number of rows and columns in the matrix.
The basic operations that can be performed on matrices are:
- Addition of Matrices - The addition of matrices addition can only be possible if the number of rows and columns of both the matrices are the same.
- Subtraction of Matrices - Matrices subtraction is also possible only if the number of rows and columns of both the matrices are the same.
- Scalar Multiplication - The product of a matrix A with any number 'c' is obtained by multiplying every entry of the matrix A by c, is called scalar multiplication.
- Multiplication of Matrices - Matrices multiplication is defined only if the number of columns in the first matrix and rows in the second matrix are equal.
- Transpose of Matrices - Interchanging of rows and columns is known as the transpose of matrices.
