Step-by-Step Verified Solution

We have, S={M=[aij],aij∈{0,1,2},1≤i,j≤2}S=\left\{M=\left[a_{i j}\right], a_{i j} \in\{0,1,2\}, 1 \leq i, j \leq 2\right\}

n(s)=34=81

If AA is invertible, then ∣A∣≠0|A| \neq 0

Now, if ∣A∣=0|A|=0 , then ∣M∣=0|M|=0

∴ad−bc=0\therefore a d-b c=0 or ad=bca d=b c

Case I : When ad=bc=0a d=b c=0 , then

There are five ways when ad=0a d=0 i.e.,

(a,d)=(0,0),(0,1),(0,2),(1,0),(2,0)(a, d)=(0,0),(0,1),(0,2),(1,0),(2,0)

Similarly, there are again five ways, when bc=0b c=0

∴\therefore There are total 5×5=255 \times 5=25 ways, when ad=bc=0a d=b c=0

Case II : When ad=bc=1a d=b c=1

There is only one way, when ad=bc=1a d=b c=1

 i.e. a=b=c=d=1

Case III : When ad=bc=2a d=b c=2

There are two ways, when ad=2a d=2 , i.e.

(a,d)=(1,2) or (2,1)

Similarly, there are two ways

when bc=2b c=2 i.e., (b,c)=(1,2)(b, c)=(1,2) or (2,1)(2,1)

Case IV : When ad−bc=4a d-b c=4

There is only way, when ad=bc=4a d=b c=4

 i.e., a=b=c=d=2

∴\therefore Total number of ways, when

(A¯)=3181|A|=0 is 25+1+4+1=31 Hence, P(A)=1−P(A¯)=1−3181=5081
