Solution

Let's break down the questions provided in the image and solve them step by step:

4) Finding the Inverses of the Matrices:

You are asked to find the inverses of multiple matrices using Gauss and Cramer's methods. We'll start with the matrix inversion steps.

Gauss-Jordan Method involves converting the matrix into an identity matrix via row operations and applying the same operations to the identity matrix to get the inverse.

Cramer's Rule is a method that uses determinants to find the inverse of a matrix, but it's typically more cumbersome for larger matrices. It's more useful when solving systems of linear equations.

Let's focus on these matrices:

4.1) First Matrix:

1 & 2 \\ 4 & 7 \end{pmatrix}$$ For this 2x2 matrix, we can find the inverse using the formula for a 2x2 matrix: $$A^{-1} = \frac{1}{\det(A)} \cdot \begin{pmatrix} d & -b \\ -c & a \end{pmatrix}$$ where $$\det(A) = ad - bc$$. #### 4.2) Second Matrix: $$\begin{pmatrix} 9 & 7 \\ 8 & 6 \end{pmatrix}$$ This is also a 2x2 matrix, so the same formula applies. #### 4.3) Third Matrix: $$\begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 & -2 \\ -3 & 1 & 4 \\ 2 & -3 & 4 \end{pmatrix}$$ This is a 3x3 matrix, and we can use Gauss-Jordan elimination or apply the matrix determinant and cofactor method to find the inverse. #### 4.4) Fourth Matrix: $$\begin{pmatrix} 1 & -2 & 1 \\ 4 & -7 & 3 \\ -2 & 6 & -4 \end{pmatrix}$$ Again, this is a 3x3 matrix, so similar methods apply as in the previous one. --- ### 5) **Performing Row Reduction:** You are asked to perform row reduction to find the rank of the matrix. The rank is the number of non-zero rows in the matrix's reduced row echelon form. The matrix given is: $$\begin{pmatrix} 2 & 4 & 1 & 3 \\ 6 & 12 & 5 & 9 \\ -4 & -8 & -2 & -6 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix}$$ We will perform Gaussian elimination to simplify it into its reduced form and determine the rank. --- ### 6) **Singular Value Decomposition (SVD):** SVD breaks a matrix $$A$$ into three matrices: $$A = U \Sigma V^T$$ where: - $$U$$ is a matrix of left singular vectors, - $$\Sigma$$ is a diagonal matrix of singular values, - $$V^T$$ is the transpose of a matrix of right singular vectors. For the matrices provided: 1. $$\begin{pmatrix} -4 & -7 \\ 1 & 4 \end{pmatrix}$$ 2. $$\begin{pmatrix} -2 & 8 & 20 \\ 14 & 19 & 10 \\ 2 & -2 & 1 \end{pmatrix}$$ We'll calculate the SVD for each matrix by computing their eigenvalues and constructing $$U$$, $$\Sigma$$, and $$V^T$$. --- I'll proceed with detailed calculations for these steps.
