If \(x, y\) are any two non-zero real numbers, \(a_{i j}=x i+y j, A=\left\{a_{i j}\right\}_{n \times n}\) and \(P, Q\) are two \(n \times n\) matrices such that \(A=x P+y Q\), then

  1. A \(P\) is singular and \(Q\) is non-singular
  2. B \(P+Q\) is symmetric and \(P-Q\) is skew symmetric
  3. C Both \(P+Q\) and \(P-Q\) are singular
  4. D Both \(P+Q\) and \(P-Q\) are non-singular
