Maharashtra Board 11th Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Determinants and Matrices Miscellaneous Exercise 4(B) II Q25
Find
(i) the total sale in rupees for two months of each farmer for each crop.
(ii) the increase in sales from April to May for every crop of each farmer.
Solution:
(i) Total sale for Shantaram:
For rice = 15000 + 18000 = ₹ 33000.
For wheat = 13000 + 15000 = ₹ 28000.
For groundnut = 12000 + 12000 = ₹ 24000.
Total sale for Kantaram:
For rice = 18000 + 21000 = ₹ 39000
For wheat = 15000 + 16500 = ₹ 31500
For groundnut = 8000 + 16000 = ₹ 24000

Alternate method:
Matrix form
Maharashtra Board 11th Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Determinants and Matrices Miscellaneous Exercise 4(B) II Q25.1
∴ The total sale of April and May of Shantaram in ₹ is ₹ 33000 (rice), ₹ 28000 (wheat), ₹ 24000 (groundnut), and that of Kantaram in ₹ is ₹ 39000(rice), ₹ 31500(wheat), and ₹ 24000 (groundnut).

(ii) Increase in sale from April to May for Shantaram:
For rice = 18000 – 15000 = ₹ 3000
For wheat = 15000 – 13000 = ₹ 2000
For groundnut = 12000 – 12000 = ₹ 0
Increase in sale from April to May for Kantaram:
For rice = 21000 – 18000 = ₹ 3000
For wheat = 16500 – 15000 = ₹ 1500
For groundnut = 16000 – 8000 = ₹ 8000
