Short Answer

Expert verified

The inverse of the given matrix is $[\begin{matrix} 鈭� \frac{1}{6} & \frac{5}{6} \\ 鈭� \frac{1}{3} & \frac{2}{3} \end{matrix}]$ .

Step by step solution

Step 1. Given Information.

Given, to find the inverse of the matrix $[\begin{matrix} 4 & 鈭� 5 \\ 2 & 鈭� 1 \end{matrix}]$ .

Step 2. Calculation.

The inverse of matrix $A = [\begin{matrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{matrix}]$ is $A^{鈭� 1} = \frac{1}{a d 鈭� b c} [\begin{matrix} d & 鈭� b \\ 鈭� c & a \end{matrix}]$ , where $a d 鈭� b c 鈮� 0$ :

Here, $a = 4, b = 鈭� 5, c = 2, d = 鈭� 1$ .

Checking if the inverse exists:

$\begin{array}{l} a d 鈭� b c = (4) (鈭� 1) 鈭� (鈭� 5) (2) \\ a d 鈭� b c = 鈭� 4 + 10 \\ a d 鈭� b c = 6 \end{array}$

Hence, the inverse exists.

The inverse of the given matrix is:

$\begin{array}{l} A^{鈭� 1} = \frac{1}{a d 鈭� b c} [\begin{matrix} d & 鈭� b \\ 鈭� c & a \end{matrix}] \\ A^{鈭� 1} = \frac{1}{(4) (鈭� 1) 鈭� (鈭� 5) (2)} [\begin{matrix} 鈭� 1 & 鈭� (鈭� 5) \\ 鈭� (2) & 4 \end{matrix}] \\ A^{鈭� 1} = \frac{1}{鈭� 4 + 10} [\begin{matrix} 鈭� 1 & 5 \\ 鈭� 2 & 4 \end{matrix}] \\ A^{鈭� 1} = \frac{1}{6} [\begin{matrix} 鈭� 1 & 5 \\ 鈭� 2 & 4 \end{matrix}] \\ A^{鈭� 1} = [\begin{matrix} 鈭� \frac{1}{6} & \frac{5}{6} \\ 鈭� \frac{1}{3} & \frac{2}{3} \end{matrix}] \end{array}$

Step 3. Conclusion.

Hence, the inverse of the given matrix is $[\begin{matrix} 鈭� \frac{1}{6} & \frac{5}{6} \\ 鈭� \frac{1}{3} & \frac{2}{3} \end{matrix}]$ .
