Linear Algebra – Matrices

1. Find the product. If the product is not defined, state the reason.

[ ]
−15 19
(a) [ 8 15 19
7 −4 12 ] −12 −19
0 −13
10 7

[ ]
−17 15 −14 8
(b) 5 −5 10 −1
1 −15 16 −16
[−54 15 −11
−9 −15 ]

[ ]

9 4

(d) [ 3 ] [−9 7 −19 −2 ]

[ ]
−1 −8
(e) [−17 −2 −10 ] 11 20
−15 −2
2. Solve for x and y
(a) [ x ] [−8 0 ] = [ 48 y ]

(b) [−110 −98 ] [183 9x] = [144y 40

−144 ]

[ ]
12 −17
x 13
(c) [−3 14 −7 20 ] = [ 588 y ]
−16 −3
20 0

3. Find the determinant of the coefficient matrix

(a) 9x - 7y = -101 (d) 6x - 3y + 2z = -75

8x - 5y = -80 -3x + 7y + 5z = -7

(b) 4x - 2y = -48 -6x - 1y - 2z = 55

3x - 6y = -27 (e) -4x - 9y - 8z = -46

(c) 5x + 8y = -21 -1x + 6y - 5z = -46

-3x + 2y = -1 -7x + 9y - 2z = -58

4. Write the augmented matrix for the linear system and then solve.

(a) 9x + 1y = 38 -6x + 4y - 3z = 74

-5x - 4y = 3 -2x + 7y - 6z = 62

(b) -6x + 7y = 162 (d) 1x - 6y - 4z = 70

-3x - 1y = 27 -8x + 3y - 1z = -95

(c) 1x + 9y - 7z = 39 -2x + 5y - 6z = 21

5. Find the inverse of

(a) [ 43 12]
(b) [−sin
