Question 7: Suppose are arbitrary vectors in Consider the linear transformation from togiven by
TRUE OR FALSE?
There exists a matrix A such that .
If the matrix is invertible, then the matrix must be invertible as well.
In the financial pages of a newspaper, one can sometimes find a table (or matrix) listing the exchange rates between currencies. In this exercise we will consider a miniature version of such a table, involving only the Canadian dollar and the South African Rand . Consider the matrix
role="math" localid="1659786495324"
representing the fact thatrole="math" localid="1659786520551" is worth role="math" localid="1659786525050" (as of September 2012).
a. After a trip you have and in your pocket. We represent these two values in the vector . Compute . What is the practical significance of the two components of the vector ?
b. Verify that matrix fails to be invertible. For which vectorsis the system consistent? What is the practical significance of your answer? If the system is consistent, how many solutionsare there? Again, what is the practical significance of the answer?
The formula holds for all matrices A and B .
