question 27 points 3
solve the system of equations using the matrix inverse method.
\\(x - y = 5\\)
\\(3x - 2y = 8\\)
\\(x = -2, y = -7\\)
\\(x = -7, y = -2\\)
Set up the matrix equation
Using the Coefficient Matrix knowledge point
$$
A =
LATEXBLOCK0
, \quad X =
LATEXBLOCK1
, \quad B =
LATEXBLOCK2
$$
$$
AX = B
$$
Find the inverse matrix
Using the Matrix Inverse Formula knowledge point
$$
\det(A) = (1)(-2) - (-1)(3) = -2 + 3 = 1
$$
$$
A^{-1} = \frac{1}{1}
LATEXBLOCK3
=
LATEXBLOCK4
$$
Solve for the variables
Using the Solving Matrix Equations knowledge point
$$
X = A^{-1}B =
LATEXBLOCK5
LATEXBLOCK6
$$
$$
X =
LATEXBLOCK7
=
LATEXBLOCK8
=
LATEXBLOCK9
$$
$$
x = -2, \quad y = -7
$$
