Find the determinant using row reduction to echelon form. −2 −8 7 −1 −4 5 1 5 −4 2 4 0 −2 3 1 2 4 (a) (b) 5 10 3 −6 2 4 0 −3       −2 3   2 5. Use a determinant to show that the set of vectors  3  ,  1  ,  2  is   1 3 −1 linearly dependent. Your justification must include at least one complete sentence explaining why the set is linearly dependent in addition to your determinant calculation. 6. Let A, B be a 3 × 3 matrices with det(A) = 7 and det(B) = 3. Find (a) det(2AT ) (c) det(A−1 ) (e) det((2A)−1 ) (d) det(2A−1 ) (f) det((AB)−1 )  2 0 0 7. Suppose B =  0 0 1 . In each part determine the corresponding 3×3 elemen0 1 1 tary matrix E. Then compute EB and verify that EB is the matrix that results in performing the corresponding row operation to B. (b) det (2AB)  1 (a) R1 ↔ R2 (b) 12 R1 (c) R3 → R3 − R1   2 0 0 8. Suppose B =  0 0 1 . 0 1 1 (a) Perform row operations to reduce B to In , keep track of the corresponding elementary matrices, E1 , E2 , …. (b) Write out appropriate product of the Ei′ s to determine B −1 . you can leave your answer as the product and not actually compute it. 2
