Some parking meters in downtown Geneva, Switzerland, acceptFranc and Franc coins.
a. A parking officer collects coins worth Francs. How many coins are there of each kind?
b. Find the matrixthat transforms the vector
into the vector
c. Is the matrixin part (b) invertible? If so, find the inverse (use Exercise 13). Use the result to check your answer in part (a).
If A is a matrix and B is a, then AB will be amatrix.
Suppose A is a transition matrix and B is a positive transition matrix (see Definition 2.3.10), where A andB are of the same size. Is AB necessarily a positive transition matrix? What about BA?
If matrices A and B commute, then the formula A2B = BA2 must hold.
Find all 2 × 2 matrices X such that AX = X A for all 2 × 2 matrices A.
