Let A be a 3×3 matrix having entries from the set -1,0,1. The number of all such matrices A having sum of all the entries equal to 5, is _____

Solution

Given Matrix 3×3=

Here we can see we have to find nine elements whose sum is 5

Case 1: When five 1's are there & four O's are there 

Now by division & distribution Method

We get 9!5!4!=126     ...i

Case 2: when six 1's are there & one -1 & two O's are there.

Again by division & distribution Method

we get 9!6!2!1!=252      ...ii

Case 3: When seven 1's are there are two -1 are there,

By division & distribution we get

9!7!2!=36       ...iii

Now adding equation i+ii+iii

We get 126+252+36=414

So total 414 ways will be there.
