Question

The restriction on n, k and p so that PY + WY will be defined are $\cdots$

  • (a) k = 3, p= n
  • (b) k is arbitrary, p = 2
  • (c) p is arbitrary, k = 3
  • (d) k = 2, p= 3
Step-by-step Solution

.:

Option a is correct

Given : $X_{2 \times n},Y_{3 \times k},Z_{2 \times p},W_{n \times 3},P_{p \times k}$

Now, $PY + WY = {P_{p \times k}} \times {Y_{3 \times k}} + {Q_{n \times 3}} \times {Y_{3 \times k}}$

Clearly, k = 3 and p = n
