Any help ? Pls Ex 4 , 2) http://i.imgur.com/MHhs4yS.jpg

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

OK. Find the new matrix inside and then take the determinat. So start with getting \(A^2\), then multiply that by 3. Get the Transpsose of that, multiply by 2. Then find the inverse of that answer, and multiply by 4. Finally take the determinant.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Which step are you getting stuck at? If you can do exercise 1, I do not see most of this as an issue. However, it may be a process or terminology problem.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ex 4 2)

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Yes, how far are you getting with it? Which step fo you get stuck at?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Actually In the first step

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

\[\left[ \bengin{array}{ccc} 1 & 2 & -1 \\ 2 & 1 & 3 \\ 0 & 3 & -2 \end{array} \right]^2 \Rightarrow \\ \bengin{array}{ccc} 1 & 2 & -1 \\ 2 & 1 & 3 \\ 0 & 3 & -2 \end{array} \right] \bengin{array}{ccc} 1 & 2 & -1 \\ 2 & 1 & 3 \\ 0 & 3 & -2 \end{array} \right] \]

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Argh. Having issues with the left nad right bracets on the matrix....

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

\[\left[\begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & -1 \\ 2 & 1 & 3 \\ 0 & 3 & -2 \end{matrix}\right]^2 \Rightarrow \\ \left[\begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & -1 \\ 2 & 1 & 3 \\ 0 & 3 & -2 \end{matrix}\right] \left[\begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & -1 \\ 2 & 1 & 3 \\ 0 & 3 & -2 \end{matrix}\right] \]

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

The exponent rules still apply. It just indicates multiplication. Have you done 3x3 multiplications? It is similar to 2x2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok . I will try Sorry suffer from this mitrix

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

np.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

I got: \[ \left[\begin{matrix} 1+4 & 2+2+3 & -1+6+2 \\ 2+2 & 4+1+9 & -2+3+6 \\ 6 & 3-6 & 9+4 \end{matrix}\right] \Rightarrow \\ \left[\begin{matrix} 5 & 1 & 7 \\ 4 & 14 & 7 \\ 6 & -3 & 13 \end{matrix}\right] \] Unless I made a math mistake, that is the first step.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Error 😰

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

With?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You side first a over 2 or get T ? I don't know how can I start , do you have example ? 😥 Pls

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Is ths still the same problem?

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

I made a small muistake n the square. It is supposed to be a -2+3-6, not -2+3+6. So that spot ends as -5: \[ \left[\begin{matrix} 5 & 1 & 7 \\ 4 & 14 & -5 \\ 6 & -3 & 13 \end{matrix}\right]\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

http://i.imgur.com/gzjTNIR.jpg

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

AH! OK. The problem is in the \(A^2\) This means matrix multiplied by itself. \[A^2=AA \Rightarrow \\ \left[\begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & -1 \\ 2 & 1 & 3 \\ 0 & 3 & -2 \end{matrix}\right]^2 = \left[\begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & -1 \\ 2 & 1 & 3 \\ 0 & 3 & -2 \end{matrix}\right] \left[\begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & -1 \\ 2 & 1 & 3 \\ 0 & 3 & -2 \end{matrix}\right] \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oooh , i do not get it , sorry

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Wait a minute. Doing some work on paper.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

I went too fast and made a mistake there too. LOL. It is supposed to be 5.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Let me see if I can fimd a good reference or make one real fast.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok , take your time , i'm trying too 😅 http://i.imgur.com/T1OoDOt.jpg

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

This is \(3\times 3\) matrix multiplication: \[\left[\begin{matrix} a & b & c \\ d & e & f \\ h & i & j \end{matrix}\right] \left[\begin{matrix} k & l & m \\ n & o & p \\ q & r & s \end{matrix}\right] =\\ \left[\begin{matrix} ak+bm+cq & al+bo+cr & am+bp+cs \\ dk+em+fq & dl+eo+fr & dm+ep+fs \\ hk+im+jq & hl+io+jr & hm+ip+js \end{matrix}\right] \]

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

OK. I checked the math this timeL \[ \left[\begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & -1 \\ 2 & 1 & 3 \\ 0 & 3 & -2 \end{matrix}\right] \left[\begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & -1 \\ 2 & 1 & 3 \\ 0 & 3 & -2 \end{matrix}\right] \Rightarrow \\ \left[\begin{matrix} 1+4+0 & 2+2-3 & -1+6+2 \\ 2+2+0 & 4+1+9 & -2+3-6 \\ 0+6+0 & 0+3-6 & 0+9+4 \end{matrix}\right] \Rightarrow \\ \left[\begin{matrix} 5 & 1 & 7 \\ 4 & 14 & -5 \\ 6 & -3 & 13 \end{matrix}\right] \] That is how I got \(A^2\) Does that make more sense now?

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

The next step is multiply by a constant of 3. I got the same thing you did there.\[ 3 \left[\begin{matrix} 5 & 1 & 7 \\ 4 & 14 & -5 \\ 6 & -3 & 13 \end{matrix}\right] \Rightarrow \left[\begin{matrix} 15 & 3 & 21 \\ 12 & 42 & -15 \\ 18 & -9 & 39 \end{matrix}\right] \]

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Now transpose all that. Again, same answer: \[ \left[\begin{matrix} 15 & 12 & 18 \\ 3 & 42 & -9 \\ 21 & -15 & 39 \end{matrix}\right] \]

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Another constant multiple. 2 this time. \[ \left[\begin{matrix} 30 & 24 & 36 \\ 6 & 84 & -18 \\ 42 & -30 & 78 \end{matrix}\right] \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok , I'm so happy 😭, next take invers or *2 ?

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

2 then inverse. Some of these do not matter in the order, but I am following the ( ) to make it a logical sequence.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

http://i.imgur.com/PpAQGl3.jpg It is true ? I hope 😁

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

How did you get that many zeros in the inverse? I am still working on the inverse. This one uses large numbers, so it is taking a bit. But you should get fractions in all spots.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Output fractures Followed method 3 * 3

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

For the inverse?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes 😁 , Do I have mistakes?

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

This has a \(3\times 3\) lower down the page. There are also a few other ways to do this. http://www.mathportal.org/linear-algebra/matrices/gauss-jordan.php

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Oh, that was a lot of work! Let me write up the inverse I got.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Inverse: \[ \left[\begin{matrix} \frac{167}{486} & -\frac{41}{243} & -\frac{16}{81} \\ -\frac{17}{243} & \frac{23}{486} & \frac{7}{162} \\ -\frac{103}{486} & \frac{53}{486} & \frac{11}{81} \end{matrix}\right] \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can watch a lot of hard work Finally ended this matrix I need to make a lot of effort in the future Thank you very much for your patience and effort

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Yes, the inverse is not always easy. I am almost done with the next steps.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

That times 4: \[ \left[\begin{matrix} \frac{334}{243} & -\frac{164}{243} & -\frac{64}{81} \\ -\frac{68}{243} & \frac{46}{243} & \frac{14}{81} \\ -\frac{260}{243} & \frac{106}{243} & \frac{44}{81} \end{matrix}\right] \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Link that you putting explains how the solution I could not very well so far, I need some time until perfected

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Add finally, the determinant of that is last! Yes, it takes practice. Let me give you another link that also shows a different way to do the same thing. It uses the Adjoint and Determinant. http://www.mathwords.com/i/inverse_of_a_matrix.htm With a \(3\times 3) like this, the Adjoint and Determinant might be easier.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

This is another good one for learning this: http://www.purplemath.com/modules/mtrxinvr.htm Sometimes it helos me to read what many people say about it. I learn a little form each one and finally I understand it all.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll put that in mind Thank you very much, you give me a lot of help that I needed

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

I used a calculator and got an approximate determinant of: -0.003657979 I do not know what this is as a fraction and accurate answer, but it looks like a lot of work! That is actually a very hard problem they gave you to do!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I agree with you

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

I think there is an easier way if you use the rules of determinants. Look in your book for that. I know some are not that hard to use. For example:\[det(B^{-1})=\frac{1}{det(B)}\] You might be able to find the \( det(A^2) \) and then use the rules to make this simpler. I just do not remember quite all the rules off the top of my head. And I thought this would be an easier matrix because the numbers start small, but they get big very fast and that makes it harder.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

As we were working on your problem, I knew there was a better way to do it. I just could not remember it then. I did a little review on the properties of determinates through basic row operations and matrix operations. Your matrix is: \(\left[\begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & -1\\ 2 & 1 & 3\\ 0 & 3 & -2 \end{matrix}\right]\) This is a \(3\times 3\) matrix. The problem is: Evaluate: \(det(4(2(3A^2)^T)^{-1})\) The steps, if taken in order, are: 1) Find AA 2) Multiply by 3 3) Get the transpose 4) Multiply by 2 5) Get the inverse 6) Multiply by 4 7) Take the determinant of all of that. However, there is an easier way! I knew there was, but I did not remember all of the rules for it. Here are the rules: 1) The determinate of the product of two matrices is the product of the determinants. http://www.proofwiki.org/wiki/Determinant_of_Matrix_Product 2) Multiply the matrix by a constant \(k\) changes the determinant by \(k^n\), where \(n\) is the number of rows. That is basically the following rule, but done once for each row: http://www.proofwiki.org/wiki/Determinant_with_Row_Multiplied_by_Constant 3) The determinant of the transpose remains the same. http://www.proofwiki.org/wiki/Determinant_of_Transpose 4) See 2. 5) The determinant of the inverse is the inverse of the determinant. http://www.proofwiki.org/wiki/Determinant_of_Inverse 6) See 2. 7) We do this first! If I use these rules, I can take the determinant first and then use the operations to change it! \(det\left(\left[\begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & -1\\ 2 & 1 & 3\\ 0 & 3 & -2 \end{matrix}\right]\right)\Rightarrow\) \(det(A)=(1)(1)(-2)+(2)(3)(0)+(-1)(2)(3)-(0)(1)(-1)-(3)(3)(1)-(-2)(2)(2) \Rightarrow\) \(det(A)=-2+0-6-0-9+8 \Rightarrow det(A)=-9\) Now that I have the determinant of A, I can use the above rules to modify the determinant and \textbf{not} do all the math we talked about. I thought the numbers were going to stay small, but they got large very fast, which is why this is a better way. For my rule examples I will use M for Matrix. We start with \(det(A)=-9\), then: \(det(M^2)=(det(M))(det(M))\therefore det(A^2)=(-9)(-9)\Rightarrow det(A^2)=81\) \(det(kM)=k^ndet(M)\therefore det(3A^2)=3^3det(A^2)\Rightarrow det(3A^2)=729\) \(det(M^T)=det(M)\therefore det((3A^2)^T)=det(3A^2)\Rightarrow det((3A^2)^T)=729\) \(det(kM)=k^ndet(M)\therefore det(2(3A^2)^T)=2^3det((3A^2)^T)\Rightarrow det(2(3A^2)^T)=5832\) \(det(M^{-1})=\dfrac{1}{det(M)}\therefore det((2(3A^2)^T)^{-1})=\dfrac{1}{det(2(3A^2)^T)}\Rightarrow det((2(3A^2)^T)^{-1})=\dfrac{1}{5832}\) \(det(kM)=k^ndet(M)\therefore det(4(2(3A^2)^T)^{-1})=4^3det((2(3A^2)^T)^{-1})\Rightarrow\\ det(4(2(3A^2)^T)^{-1})=\dfrac{64}{5832}\) \(\dfrac{64}{5832} = \dfrac{(8)(8)}{(8)(729)}\therefore det(4(2(3A^2)^T)^{-1})=\dfrac{8}{729}\) That is a MUCH easier way to solve that problem!
