4-5 – 2x2 Matrices, Determinants, & Inverses Objectives Evaluating Determinants of 2x2 Matrices Using Inverse Matrices to Solve Equations Vocabulary A square matrix is a matrix with the same number of columns as rows. Multiplicative Identity Matrix is an n x n square matrix with 1’s along the main diagonal and 0’s elsewhere. 1 0 I2 0 1 1 0 0 I 3 0 1 0 0 0 1 Vocabulary Multiplicative Inverse of a Matrix If A and B are n x n matrices, and AB = BA = 1, then B is the multiplicative inverse of A, written A-1 AA-1 = A-1 A = 1 Verifying Inverses Show that matrices A and B are multiplicative inverses. –1 1 3 7 A = AB = 3 7 B = –1 1 0.1 –0.7 0.1 –0.7 0.1 0.3 0.1 0.3 = (3)(0.1) + (–1)(–0.7) (7)(0.1) + (1)(–0.7) = 1 0 (3)(0.1) + (–1)(0.3) (7)(0.1) + (1)(0.3) 0 1 AB = I, so B is the multiplicative inverse of A. Vocabulary The determinant of a 2 x 2 matrix det A a b c d a b c d is ad – bc. Evaluating the Determinant of a 2x2 Matrix Evaluate each determinant. a. det 7 –5 8 –9 7 –5 b. det 4 5 –3 6 = 4 5 –3 6 = (4)(6) – (–3)(5) = 39 c. det a b –b a = a b –b a = (a)(a) – (–b)(b) = a2 + b2 = 8 –9 = (7)(–9) – (8)(–5) = –23 Vocabulary a b Let A = . If det A = 0, then A has no inverse. c d 1 d b 1 d b If det A ≠ 0, then A = det A c a ad bc c a Finding an Inverse Matrix Determine whether each matrix has an inverse. If it does, find it. a. X = 12 9 4 3 ad – bc = (12)(3) – (4)(9) Find det X. Simplify. = 0 Since det X = 0, the inverse of X does not exist. b. Y = 6 25 5 20 ad – bc = (6)(20) – (5)(25) Find det Y. Simplify. = –5 Since the determinant =/ 0, the inverse of Y exists. Continued (continued) Y–1 1 = det Y 20 –25 –5 6 1 det Y 20 –25 –5 6 = = – 1 5 = –4 5 20 –25 1 –1.2 –5 6 Change signs. Switch positions. Use the determinant to write the inverse. Substitute –5 for the determinant. Multiply. Solving a Matrix Equation Solve 9 4 25 11 X = 3 –7 for the matrix X. The matrix equation has the form AX = B. First find A–1. A–1 1 = ad – bc d –c –b a 1 = (9)(11) – (25)(4) = –11 4 Use the definition of inverse. 11 –4 25 –9 –25 9 Substitute. Simplify. Use the equation X = A–1B. X = –11 4 25 –9 3 –7 Substitute. Continued (continued) = (–11)(3) + (25)(–7) (4)(3) + (–9)(–7) Check: –208 75 = Multiply and simplify. 3 –7 Use the original equation. –208 75 3 –7 Substitute. 9(–208) + 25(75) 4(–208) + 11(75) 3 –7 Multiply and simplify. 3 –7 3 –7 9 4 9 4 25 11 25 11 X = = Real World Example In a city with a stable group of 45,000 households, 25,000 households use long distance carrier A, and 20,000 use long distance carrier B. Records show that over a 1-year period, 84% of the households remain with carrier A, while 16% switch to B. 93% of the households using B stay with B, while 7% switch to A. a. Write a matrix to represent the changes in long distance carriers. From To A To B A 0.84 0.16 B 0.07 0.93 Write the percents as decimals. Continued (continued) b. Predict the number of households that will be using distance carrier B next year.
