Question

(This is a matrix equation and I'm so confused)Find the variables:
[-1 -w^2] = [ 3k 1]
[12f 0 ] [ 24 12]

Answer 1

-1=3k
12f=24
-w^2=1
solve this

Answer 2

k = -1/3
f = 2
w = i
Is that right? Also, how do you get here, I thought you were supposed to do the whole thing across like -1 - w^2 = 3k + 1

Answer 3

two matrixes are equal if they have same elements. That's it

Answer 4

Oh! I get it now, thanks a ton
