Answer: -2/7

Step-by-step explanation: For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators. This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 10 and 35 using GCF(10,35) = 5.  Apply the fractions formula for multiplication and solve. Reduce by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor GCF(10,35) = 5. Therefore: 2/5×−5/7=−2/7

A = ???? 4 −2
irinina [24]

Answer:

1. The matrix A isn't the inverse of matrix B.

2. |B|=12, |A|=12

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We want to know if matrix A is the inverse of matrix B, this means that if you do the product between B and A you have to obtain the identity matrix.

We have:

A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}4&-2\\-1&3\end{array}\right]

and

B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&2\\1&4\end{array}\right]

A and B are 2×2 matrices (2 rows and 2 columns), if you multiply them you have to obtain a 2×2 matrix.

Then if A is the inverse of B:

B.A=I

Where,

I=\left[\begin{array}{cc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]

Observation:

If you have two matrices:

A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right]\\and\\B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}e&f\\g&h\end{array}\right]\\\\\\A.B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}(a.e+b.g)&(a.f+b.h)\\(c.e+d.g)&(c.f+d.h)\end{array}\right]

Now:

B.A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&2\\1&4\end{array}\right].\left[\begin{array}{cc}4&-2\\-1&3\end{array}\right]\\\\\\B.A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}4.3+(-2).1&4.2+(-2).4\\(-1).3+3.1&(-1).2+3.4\end{array}\right]\\\\\\B.A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}12-2&8-8\\-3+3&-2+12\end{array}\right]\\\\\\B.A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}10&0\\0&10\end{array}\right]

B.A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}10&0\\0&10\end{array}\right]\neq \left[\begin{array}{cc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]=I\\\\\\B.A\neq I

Then, the matrix A isn't the inverse of matrix B.

2. If you have a matrix A:

A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right]

The determinant of the matrix is:

|A|=ad-bc

Then the determinant of B is:

B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&2\\1&4\end{array}\right]

a=3, b=2, c=1, d=4

|B|=3.4-2.1\\|B|=12-2=10

The determinant of A is:

A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}4&-2\\-1&3\end{array}\right]

a=4, b=-2, c=-1, d=3

|A|=4.3-(-2).(-1)\\|B|=12-2=10
