How many $3 \times 3$ matrices $\mathrm{M}$ with entries from $\{0,1,2\}$ are there, for which the sum of the diagonal entries of $M^T M$ is $5$ ?

A

$126$

B

$198$

C

$162$

D

$135$

(IIT-2017)

Solution

Let matrix $\mathrm{M}=\left[\mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{i}}\right]$

Then sum of diagonal entries $=\sum k_{i j}^2$ $\Rightarrow \sum k_{i j}^2=5$

where $\mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{jj}}$ are from $\{0,1,2\}$

$\Rightarrow$ Total number of matrices $={ }^9 \mathrm{C} 5+{ }^9 \mathrm{C} 1 \cdot{ }^8 \mathrm{C}_1=198$
