OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, these are just asking for relatively simple verifications. Let me show you how to do the first one.

razor99 (razor99):

Jemurray3 and SamIam are typing replies…

OpenStudy (samiam):

ok i did the first two parts but let me see what u got i really need part c

OpenStudy (samiam):

Razor are you ok?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, okay, well if you did the first two I won't bother :) Watch now: \[ A^{-1}\cdot A = \frac{1}{5}(2I - A) \cdot A = \frac{1}{5}(2I\cdot A - A^2) \] but since \[A^2 -2IA + 5I = 0\] as per the assumption, then \[2IA - A^2 = 5I\] so plugging that in yields \[\frac{1}{5}(5I) = I \] So that is in fact the proper inverse matrix.

OpenStudy (samiam):

Just processing it give me a sec :D

OpenStudy (samiam):

OHHHH GOTTTT ITTTTT Thankx jemurray :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):
