Q70 / 170 · Manipal (MET) 2021 · Mathematics

Pick out the wrong statement. If $A$ and $B$ are square matrices of the same order, then

  • A
    $A+B=B+A$
  • B
    $(A B)^{\prime}=B^{\prime} A^{\prime}$
  • Correct answer
    C
    $A-B=I$
  • D
    $|A B|=|A||B|$

Solution

The only wrong statement is option(c). $\because$ It is not necessary that $A-B=I, \forall A, B$ square matrix of same order.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
