Math Problem Statement

find matrix x such that 3a - 2b + 4x = 0

a= [2 3 4 5]

b = [3 4

    5 6]

Solution

To solve for matrix XX in the equation 3A2B+4X=03A - 2B + 4X = 0, we need to isolate XX.

Given:

B = \begin{bmatrix} 3 & 4 \\ 5 & 6 \end{bmatrix}$$ ### Step 1: Reorganize the equation The equation is: $$3A - 2B + 4X = 0$$ Isolating $$X$$, we get: $$4X = -3A + 2B$$ Now, divide both sides by 4 to solve for $$X$$: $$X = \frac{-3A + 2B}{4}$$ ### Step 2: Matrix dimensions mismatch There's a potential issue here: $$A$$ is a $$1 \times 4$$ matrix, while $$B$$ is a $$2 \times 2$$ matrix. In order for the matrices to work in this equation, they must have the same dimensions. So, either the problem as posed has a mismatch in dimensions, or more information is needed to clarify the setup. Would you like to revisit the matrix dimensions or clarify the problem further?
