Write each systems as a matrix equation
1. 2.
Title: Nov 18:35 PM (4 of 12)
Solve the system using matrices and a graphing calculator
We cannot divide matrices, so in order to solve for the variable matrix, we multiply both sides of the equation by the inverse of matrix A.
AA_ 1
A B
Multiplying a mtrix by its inverse equals 1.
Solving this operation gives us the solution to the system of equations. This is what we put into our calculator to solve.
