Identify element a23 from A =

2

100

(Triple points) Give me a matrix A where AB = B given B = 

[[31, 21] , [63, 57]]

This is known as the Identity matrix I. A = 

[[1, 0], [0, 1]]

What is the matrix from of 

{[2x+3y=8], [4x-y=5]}

[[2,3],[4,-1]][[x],[y]]=[[8],[5]]

100

What is the rule for determining if two matrices can be added or subtracted together?

The matrices have to be the exact same dimensions (equal number of rows and columns)

100

Can the following matrices be multiplied together? How do you know? 

[[1,2],[3, 4],[5, 6]] [[1,2, 3],[4, 5, 6]]

Yes, because the first matrix is a 3x2, and the second matrix is a 2x3. Since the second matrix has the same number of rows, as the first one has columns (2), these matrices can be multiplied together.

Find the determinant:

[[6,4],[-9,3]]

54

(Double Points) Give me a matrix A and matrix B where AB = BA. The matrices cannot be identity or zero matrices.

Need to use diagonal matrices.

Example: AB=BA

[[2, 0] , [0,3]] [[4, 0] , [0, 5]] = [[8 , 0] , [0, 15]]

[[4, 0] , [0,5]] [[2, 0] , [0, 3]] = [[8 , 0] , [0, 15]]

Create matrices for the following system of equations:

x - y + z = 0

x +2y - z = 0

2x + y - 3z = 0


Then solve whatever way you would like.

[[12, 4, -7],[-2, -1, 5],[3, -8, 6]] and [[-12, -4, 7],[2, 1, -5],[-3, 8, -6]]


x = 0, y = 0, z = 0.

Later in our unit, we will solve matrices using Gaussian Elimination, Inverse Matrices, and Cramer’s Rule
