    NCERT’s answer
    \(\displaystyle x=1, y=\frac{1}{2}, z=\frac{-3}{2}\)
    Write \(\displaystyle AX=B\); the third equation has no \(\displaystyle x\)-term, so its first coefficient is \(\displaystyle 0\).\[A=\left[\begin{array}{rrr}2 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & -2 & -1 \\ 0 & 3 & -5\end{array}\right],\qquad X=\left[\begin{array}{r}x \\ y \\ z\end{array}\right],\qquad B=\left[\begin{array}{r}1 \\ \tfrac{3}{2} \\ 9\end{array}\right] \]\[|A|=2(10+3)-1(-5-0)+1(3-0)=26+5+3=34\neq 0 \]So \(\displaystyle A^{-1}\) exists. Cofactors:\[A_{11}=13,\ A_{12}=5,\ A_{13}=3,\quad A_{21}=8,\ A_{22}=-10,\ A_{23}=-6,\quad A_{31}=1,\ A_{32}=3,\ A_{33}=-5 \]Transposing the cofactor matrix,\[\mathrm{adj}\,A=\left[\begin{array}{rrr}13 & 8 & 1 \\ 5 & -10 & 3 \\ 3 & -6 & -5\end{array}\right],\qquad A^{-1}=\frac{1}{34}\left[\begin{array}{rrr}13 & 8 & 1 \\ 5 & -10 & 3 \\ 3 & -6 & -5\end{array}\right] \]\[X=A^{-1}B=\frac{1}{34}\left[\begin{array}{r}13(1)+8\left(\tfrac{3}{2}\right)+1(9) \\ 5(1)-10\left(\tfrac{3}{2}\right)+3(9) \\ 3(1)-6\left(\tfrac{3}{2}\right)-5(9)\end{array}\right]=\frac{1}{34}\left[\begin{array}{r}34 \\ 17 \\ -51\end{array}\right] \]\[x=1,\qquad y=\frac{1}{2},\qquad z=-\frac{3}{2} \]

    NCERT’s answer
    cost of onions per \(\displaystyle \mathrm{kg}=₹ 5\) cost of wheat per \(\displaystyle \mathrm{kg}=₹ 8\) cost of rice per kg =₹ $\displaystyle 8$
    Let the cost per kg be \(\displaystyle ₹x\) for onion, \(\displaystyle ₹y\) for wheat and \(\displaystyle ₹z\) for rice. Translating the three purchases:\[\begin{aligned} 4x+3y+2z &= 60 \\ 2x+4y+6z &= 90 \\ 6x+2y+3z &= 70 \end{aligned} \]In matrix form \(\displaystyle AX=B\):\[A=\left[\begin{array}{rrr}4 & 3 & 2 \\ 2 & 4 & 6 \\ 6 & 2 & 3\end{array}\right],\qquad X=\left[\begin{array}{r}x \\ y \\ z\end{array}\right],\qquad B=\left[\begin{array}{r}60 \\ 90 \\ 70\end{array}\right] \]\[|A|=4(12-12)-3(6-36)+2(4-24)=0+90-40=50\neq 0 \]So \(\displaystyle A^{-1}\) exists. Cofactors:\[A_{11}=0,\ A_{12}=30,\ A_{13}=-20,\quad A_{21}=-5,\ A_{22}=0,\ A_{23}=10,\quad A_{31}=10,\ A_{32}=-20,\ A_{33}=10 \]\[\mathrm{adj}\,A=\left[\begin{array}{rrr}0 & -5 & 10 \\ 30 & 0 & -20 \\ -20 & 10 & 10\end{array}\right],\qquad A^{-1}=\frac{1}{50}\left[\begin{array}{rrr}0 & -5 & 10 \\ 30 & 0 & -20 \\ -20 & 10 & 10\end{array}\right] \]\[X=A^{-1}B=\frac{1}{50}\left[\begin{array}{r}0-450+700 \\ 1800+0-1400 \\ -1200+900+700\end{array}\right]=\frac{1}{50}\left[\begin{array}{r}250 \\ 400 \\ 400\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{r}5 \\ 8 \\ 8\end{array}\right] \]Onion costs \(\displaystyle ₹5\) per kg, wheat \(\displaystyle ₹8\) per kg and rice \(\displaystyle ₹8\) per kg.
