The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:
Solve for X. Assume X is a 2x2 matrix and I denotes the 2x2 identity matrix. Do not use decimal numbers in your answer. If there are fractions, leave them unevaluated.
· X·
=<em>I</em>.
First, we have to identify the matrix <em>I. </em>As it was said, the matrix is the identiy matrix, which means
<em>I</em> =
So,
· X·
= ![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%260%5C%5C0%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Isolating the X, we have
X·
=
- ![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%260%5C%5C0%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Resolving:
X·
= ![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2-1&8-0\\-6-0&-9-1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D2-1%268-0%5C%5C-6-0%26-9-1%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
X·
=![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&8\\-6&-10\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%268%5C%5C-6%26-10%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Now, we have a problem similar to A.X=B. To solve it and because we don't divide matrices, we do X=A⁻¹·B. In this case,
X=
⁻¹·![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&8\\-6&-10\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%268%5C%5C-6%26-10%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Now, a matrix with index -1 is called Inverse Matrix and is calculated as: A . A⁻¹ = I.
So,
·
=![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%260%5C%5C0%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
9a - 3b = 1
7a - 6b = 0
9c - 3d = 0
7c - 6d = 1
Resolving these equations, we have a=
; b=
; c=
and d=
. Substituting:
X=
·![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&8\\-6&-10\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%268%5C%5C-6%26-10%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Multiplying the matrices, we have
X=![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{8}{11} &\frac{26}{11} \\\frac{39}{11}&\frac{198}{11} \end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D%5Cfrac%7B8%7D%7B11%7D%20%26%5Cfrac%7B26%7D%7B11%7D%20%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B39%7D%7B11%7D%26%5Cfrac%7B198%7D%7B11%7D%20%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)

Answer:
Find the area of the larger rectangle, then subtract the area of the two smaller rectangles in the corners. Separate the figure into two or three rectangles, and add the areas.
Step-by-step explanation:
this is the sample response
Amy: (3 pages/min)(x min) + 9 pages
Sam: (2 pages/min)(x min) + 47 pages
Equate these: 3x+9 = 2x + 47
Then x = 38. The two friends will have covered the same number of pages after 38 minutes. How many pages would that be? 3(38)+9 = 123 pages.
