   11. The management committee of a residential colony decided to award some of its members (say x)for
       honesty, some (say y) for helping others (say z) for supervising the workers to keep the colony neat and

       supervision added to two times the number of awardees for honesty is 33. If the sum of the number of
       awardees for honesty and supervision is twice the number of awardees for helping others, using matrix
       method, find the number of awardees of each category. Apart from these values, namely, honesty,
