matrix help please, picture in comments

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(4X+A=B \implies X = \dfrac{B-A}{4}\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

so simply subtract first matrix from the second, then divide by 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i came up with -3/4 -7/4 -1 1/4 3/4 0 @ganeshie8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

doesnt look correct, try again

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

seems you have worked \(A-B\) instead of \(B-A\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1 -3 -7 2 -4 1 3 3 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

exclude the 123

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(B-A = ?\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my answer isnt apart of my choices

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

again you're doing A-B, which is wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmm. i dont know/see what im doing.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

lets start over

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you're given that \(4X+A=B\) can you isolate \(X\) from above eqn ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i reversed it and i have 3 7 4 -1 -3 0

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

why ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i put b first like you said. thats what i came up with

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

good, next what you wana do

OpenStudy (anonymous):

isnt that it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

divide by 4. end up with d. @ganeshie8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Looks good!
