Yes, we can obtain a diagonal matrix by multiplying two non diagonal matrix.
Consider the matrix multiplication below
For the product to be a diagonal matrix,
a f + b h = 0 ⇒ a f = -b h
and c e + d g = 0 ⇒ c e = -d g
Consider the following sets of values
The the matrix product becomes:
Thus, as can be seen we can obtain a diagonal matrix that is a product of non diagonal matrices.

Answer: 16) (17) (18) (19) 3x - 18
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Inverse is when you swap the x's and y's and then solve for y
16) Given: y = x²
Swapped: x = y²
17) Given: y = 2x + 4
Swapped: x = 2y + 4
x - 4 = 2y
18) Given: y = (x + 2)²
Swapped: x = (y + 2)²
√x = y + 2
19) Given:
Swapped:
3(x - 6) = y
3x - 18 = y
