Mxn Matrices do not have an inverse solution for m ≠ n, so your 2x4 will not have a solution.
<span>Generally, inverting matrices is done through finding the determinant of the square matrix and then performing an operation on the matrix based on the size of the matrix. </span>
<span>Wikipedia has a good article on Matrix inversion, take a look there for more information.</span>
<u>Answer</u>
y = (1/2)x - 1
<u>Explanation</u>
The first step is to get the gradient of the line.
The two points in the line are; (2,0) and (-2, -2).
Gradient = (-2 - 0)/(-2, - 2)
= -2/-4
= 1/2
To get the function we use one of the point (2,0) and a general point (x,y).
1/2 = (y - 0)/(x - 2)
1/2 = y/(x - 2)
(x - 2) = 2y
2y = x - 2
y = (1/2)x - 1
-3x + y = 1 ............. the general form is y= mx +b .................y = 1 + 3x
...........................
Y = 3x + 1
50-28=22
the numbers would be 28+22
sum = answer of addition
