Answer:
Assuming you mean baseball in stead of basketball, if must be the 5th floor.
Step-by-step explanation:
"The girl on the fifth floor thinks soccer is boring" implies that on the 5th floor lives the football or baseball fan. However, it cannot be the football fan since it is already known that she lives on 6th.
So the baseball fan, which is Jean, lives on 5th.

![A^{-1}=\left[ \begin{array}{ccc} \frac{1}{9} & \frac{4}{27} & - \frac{2}{27} \\\\ \frac{8}{9} & \frac{5}{27} & \frac{11}{27} \\\\ - \frac{4}{9} & \frac{2}{27} & - \frac{1}{27} \end{array} \right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%5E%7B-1%7D%3D%5Cleft%5B%20%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B9%7D%20%26%20%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B27%7D%20%26%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B27%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Cfrac%7B8%7D%7B9%7D%20%26%20%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B27%7D%20%26%20%5Cfrac%7B11%7D%7B27%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B9%7D%20%26%20%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B27%7D%20%26%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B27%7D%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%20%5Cright%5D)
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find the inverse of ![A=\left[ \begin{array}{ccc} 1 & 0 & -2 \\\\ 4 & 1 & 3 \\\\ -4 & 2 & 3 \end{array} \right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3D%5Cleft%5B%20%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D%201%20%26%200%20%26%20-2%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%204%20%26%201%20%26%203%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%20-4%20%26%202%20%26%203%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%20%5Cright%5D)
To find the inverse matrix, augment it with the identity matrix and perform row operations trying to make the identity matrix to the left. Then to the right will be inverse matrix.
So, augment the matrix with identity matrix:
![\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc}1&0&-2&1&0&0 \\\\ 4&1&3&0&1&0 \\\\ -4&2&3&0&0&1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%20%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cccc%7D1%260%26-2%261%260%260%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%204%261%263%260%261%260%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%20-4%262%263%260%260%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
- Subtract row 1 multiplied by 4 from row 2
![\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc}1&0&-2&1&0&0 \\\\ 0&1&11&-4&1&0 \\\\ -4&2&3&0&0&1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%20%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cccc%7D1%260%26-2%261%260%260%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%200%261%2611%26-4%261%260%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%20-4%262%263%260%260%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)

- Subtract row 3 multiplied by 11 from row 2
![\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc}1&0&0&\frac{1}{9}&\frac{4}{27}&- \frac{2}{27} \\\\ 0&1&0&\frac{8}{9}&\frac{5}{27}&\frac{11}{27} \\\\ 0&0&1&- \frac{4}{9}&\frac{2}{27}&- \frac{1}{27}\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%20%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cccc%7D1%260%260%26%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B9%7D%26%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B27%7D%26-%20%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B27%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%200%261%260%26%5Cfrac%7B8%7D%7B9%7D%26%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B27%7D%26%5Cfrac%7B11%7D%7B27%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%200%260%261%26-%20%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B9%7D%26%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B27%7D%26-%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B27%7D%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
As can be seen, we have obtained the identity matrix to the left. So, we are done.
