A⋅[1343−15−24−3]=[3−151344−86] Find the 3×3 matrix A.
According to my textbook, the question requires elementary row operations on the given matrices.
I read somewhere that for an equation of the form AB=X ,we can apply elementary row operation on A and X only. I don't know why do these contradict. Where am I wrong?
Answer
Since
det
we can right-multiply both sides of the linear matrix equation by elementary matrices until we obtain
\mathrm A = \begin{bmatrix} 3 & -1 & 5\\ 1 & 3 & 4\\ 4 & -8 & 6\end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 3 & 4\\ 3 & -1 & 5\\ -2 & 4 & -3\end{bmatrix}^{-1}
We would be doing elementary column operations. If you must do elementary row operations, then do transpose both sides of the linear matrix equation, then do left-multiply both sides by elementary matrices, obtain \mathrm A^{\top} and then transpose to obtain \mathrm A.
