Consider M2(R) for a,b,c,d in R.
det (M2 (R))=ad-bc=0 for identity yet limx->0 (1/x)
DNE therefore it is Undefined.

Answer:

The determinant of an identity matrix is always 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An identity matrix.

We have to find the determinant of an identity matrix.

Consider an identity matrix,

Identity matrix is a matrix having entry one in its diagonal and  rest all entries are zero.

Let us consider a 2 × 2 identity matrix,

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

We know determinant of a  2 × 2 matrix

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

is given by

D = ad - bc

Thus, here a = 1 , b = 0 , c= 0 d= 1

Thus, D = 1 - 0 = 1

Thus, The determinant of an identity matrix is always 1.

Express the system as AX = B; then solve using matrix inverses
Wittaler [7]

Answer with explanation:

1. The given equations are

3x -5 y=2

-x+2 y= 0

⇒The matrix in the form of , AX=B, is

A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&-5\\-1&2\end{array}\right] ,\\\\ X=\left[\begin{array}{c}x&y\end{array}\right],\\\\B=\left[\begin{array}{c}2&0\end{array}\right]

\rightarrow X=A^{-1}B\\\\\rightarrow X=\frac{Adj.A}{|A|}\times B

Adj.A=Transpose of cofactor of Matrix A

Adj.A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}2&1\\5&3\end{array}\right] ,\\\\ |A|=6-5\\\\|A|=1\\\\\left[\begin{array}{c}x&y\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}2&5\\1&3\end{array}\right] \times \left[\begin{array}{c}2&0\end{array}\right]\\\\x=4, y=2

2.

The given equations are

x+y-z=2

x+z=7

2 x +y+z=13

⇒The matrix in the form of , AX=B, is

   A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&-1\\1&0&1\\2&1&1\end{array}\right]\\\\ X=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right]\\\\B= \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\7\\13\end{array}\right]\\\\\rightarrow X=A^{-1}B\\\\\rightarrow X=\frac{Adj.A}{|A|}\times B\\\\a_{11}=-1,a_{12}=1,a_{13}=1,a_{21}=-2,a_{22}=3,a_{23}=1,a_{31}=1,a_{32}=-2,a_{33}=-1\\\\|A|=1\times(0-1)-1\times(1-2)-1\times(1-0)\\\\=-1+1-1\\\\|A|=-1\\\\Adj.A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-1&-2&1\\1&3&-2\\1&1&-1\end{array}\right]

\frac{Adj.A}{|A|}=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2&-1\\-1&-3&2\\-1&-1&1\end{array}\right]\\\\X=A^{-1}B\\\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2&-1\\-1&-3&2\\-1&-1&1\end{array}\right]\times\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\7\\13\end{array}\right]\\\\x=3,y=3,z=4
