Exercise 16

Avg difficulty 2.5

Find the inverse (if it exists) of each of the matrices AA in Finding Inverses. that is, find the matrix A−1A^{-1} such that AA−1=A−1A=IA A^{-1} = A^{-1} A = I, where I=(1001).I = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{pmatrix}.

A=(3−7−25)\displaystyle A = \begin{pmatrix} 3 & -7 \\ -2 & 5 \end{pmatrix}
