here are the solutions to the matrix problems:
1. Given that A=(2346) and B=(11431), find C such that B⋅C=A.
Step 1: To find C, we need to multiply both sides of the equation B⋅C=A by the inverse of B (B−1) from the left. This gives C=B−1⋅A. First, calculate the determinant of B.
det(B)=(11)(1)−(3)(4)=11−12=−1
Step 2: Calculate the inverse of B.
B−1=det(B)1(1−4−311)=−11(1−4−311)=(−143−11)
Step 3: Multiply B−1 by A to find C.
C=B−1⋅A=(−143−11)(2346)
C=((−1)(2)+(3)(3)(4)(2)+(−11)(3)(−1)(4)+(3)(6)(4)(4)+(−11)(6))
C=(−2+98−33−4+1816−66)
C=(7−2514−50)
The matrix C is (7−2514−50).
2. Find the inverse of the matrix (2354). Hence or otherwise solve the equations 2x+5y=9 and 3x+4y=6.
Part 1: Find the inverse of the matrix.
Step 1: Let the given matrix be M=(2354). First, calculate the determinant of M.
det(M)=(2)(4)−(5)(3)=8−15=−7
Step 2: Calculate the inverse of M.
M−1=det(M)1(4−3−52)=−71(4−3−52)=(−747375−72)
The inverse of the matrix is (−747375−72).
Part 2: Solve the equations using the inverse matrix.
Step 1: Write the system of equations in matrix form.
(2354)(xy)=(96)
Step 2: Multiply both sides by the inverse matrix M−1 found in Part 1.
(xy)=M−1(96)=(−747375−72)(96)
Step 3: Perform the matrix multiplication.
(xy)=((−74)(9)+(75)(6)(73)(9)+(−72)(6))
(xy)=(−736+730727−712)
(xy)=(−76715)
The solution to the equations is x = -\frac{6{7}} and y = \frac{15{7}}.
