Find the inverse of the matrix \(\left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{3}}&{ - {\bf{4}}}\\{\bf{7}}&{ - {\bf{8}}}\end{aligned}} \right)\).

Short Answer

Expert verified

The inverse of \(\left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}3&{ - 4}\\7&{ - 8}\end{aligned}} \right)\) is \(\left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{ - 2}&1\\{ - 1.75}&{0.75}\end{aligned}} \right)\).

Step by step solution

01

Check if the matrix is invertible

\(\begin{aligned}{c}\det \left( {\left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}3&{ - 4}\\7&{ - 8}\end{aligned}} \right)} \right) = 3\left( { - 8} \right) - \left( { - 4} \right)\left( 7 \right)\\ = - 24 + 28\\\det \left( {\left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}3&{ - 4}\\7&{ - 8}\end{aligned}} \right)} \right) = 4 \ne 0\end{aligned}\)

This implies that\(\left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}3&{ - 4}\\7&{ - 8}\end{aligned}} \right)\)is invertible.

02

Use the formula

\({\left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}a&b\\c&d\end{aligned}} \right)^{ - 1}} = \frac{1}{{ad - bc}}\left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}d&{ - b}\\{ - c}&a\end{aligned}} \right)\) when \(ad - bc \ne 0\).

03

Write the inverse matrix

\(\begin{aligned}{c}{\left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}3&{ - 4}\\7&{ - 8}\end{aligned}} \right)^{ - 1}} = \frac{1}{4}\left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{ - 8}&4\\{ - 7}&3\end{aligned}} \right)\\ = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{ - 2}&1\\{ - \frac{7}{4}}&{\frac{3}{4}}\end{aligned}} \right)\\{\left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}3&{ - 4}\\7&{ - 8}\end{aligned}} \right)^{ - 1}} = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{ - 2}&1\\{ - 1.75}&{0.75}\end{aligned}} \right)\end{aligned}\)

Suppose the first two columns, \({{\bf{b}}_1}\) and \({{\bf{b}}_2}\), of Bare equal. What can you say about the columns of AB(if ABis defined)? Why?

Let \(A = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{2}}&{ - {\bf{3}}}\\{ - {\bf{4}}}&{\bf{6}}\end{aligned}} \right)\) and \(B = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{8}}&{\bf{4}}\\{\bf{5}}&{\bf{5}}\end{aligned}} \right)\) and \(C = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{5}}&{ - {\bf{2}}}\\{\bf{3}}&{\bf{1}}\end{aligned}} \right)\). Verfiy that \(AB = AC\) and yet \(B \ne C\).

In Exercises 27 and 28, view vectors in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\)as\(n \times 1\)matrices. For \({\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} \) and \({\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} \) in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\), the matrix product \({{\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} ^T}v\) is a \(1 \times 1\) matrix, called the scalar product, or inner product, of u and v. It is usually written as a single real number without brackets. The matrix product \({{\mathop{\rm uv}\nolimits} ^T}\) is a \(n \times n\) matrix, called the outer product of u and v. The products \({{\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} ^T}{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} \) and \({{\mathop{\rm uv}\nolimits} ^T}\) will appear later in the text.

28. If u and v are in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\), how are \({{\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} ^T}{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} \) and \({{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} ^T}{\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} \) related? How are \({{\mathop{\rm uv}\nolimits} ^T}\) and \({\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} {{\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} ^T}\) related?

Let \(A = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{1}}&{\bf{2}}\\{\bf{5}}&{{\bf{12}}}\end{aligned}} \right),{b_{\bf{1}}} = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{ - {\bf{1}}}\\{\bf{3}}\end{aligned}} \right),{b_{\bf{2}}} = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{1}}\\{ - {\bf{5}}}\end{aligned}} \right),{b_{\bf{3}}} = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{2}}\\{\bf{6}}\end{aligned}} \right),\) and \({b_{\bf{4}}} = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{3}}\\{\bf{5}}\end{aligned}} \right)\).

  1. Find \({A^{ - {\bf{1}}}}\), and use it to solve the four equations \(Ax = {b_{\bf{1}}},\)\(Ax = {b_2},\)\(Ax = {b_{\bf{3}}},\)\(Ax = {b_{\bf{4}}}\)\(\)
  2. The four equations in part (a) can be solved by the same set of row operations, since the coefficient matrix is the same in each case. Solve the four equations in part (a) by row reducing the augmented matrix \(\left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}A&{{b_{\bf{1}}}}&{{b_{\bf{2}}}}&{{b_{\bf{3}}}}&{{b_{\bf{4}}}}\end{aligned}} \right)\).

In Exercises 27 and 28, view vectors in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) as \(n \times 1\) matrices. For \({\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} \) and \({\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} \) in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\), the matrix product \({{\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} ^T}v\) is a \(1 \times 1\) matrix, called the scalar product, or inner product, of u and v. It is usually written as a single real number without brackets. The matrix product \({{\mathop{\rm uv}\nolimits} ^T}\) is an \(n \times n\) matrix, called the outer product of u and v. The products \({{\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} ^T}{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} \) and \({{\mathop{\rm uv}\nolimits} ^T}\) will appear later in the text.

27. Let \({\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{ - 2}\\3\\{ - 4}\end{aligned}} \right)\) and \({\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}a\\b\\c\end{aligned}} \right)\). Compute \({{\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} ^T}{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} \), \({{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} ^T}{\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} \),\({{\mathop{\rm uv}\nolimits} ^T}\), and \({\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} {{\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} ^T}\).
