straight A space equals open square brackets table row 0 cell space space space 0 end cell cell space space minus 1 end cell row 3 cell space space space space 4 end cell cell space space space space space 5 end cell row cell negative 2 end cell cell negative 4 end cell cell space space minus 7 end cell end table close square brackets.

Solution

Here  straight A space equals open square brackets table row 0 cell space space space space 0 end cell cell space space space minus 1 end cell row 3 cell space space space space space 4 end cell cell space space space space space space 5 end cell row cell negative 2 end cell cell space space minus 4 end cell cell space space minus 7 end cell end table close square brackets
therefore space space space open vertical bar straight A close vertical bar space equals space open vertical bar table row 0 cell space space 0 end cell cell space space minus 1 end cell row 3 cell space space 4 end cell cell space space space space space 5 end cell row cell negative 2 end cell cell space space minus 4 end cell cell space space minus 7 end cell end table close vertical bar space equals space minus open vertical bar table row 3 cell space space space space space 4 end cell row cell negative 2 end cell cell space space space minus 4 end cell end table close vertical bar space equals space minus left parenthesis negative 12 plus 8 right parenthesis space equals space 4 not equal to 0
therefore space space space straight A to the power of negative 1 end exponent space exists. space
Co-factors of the elements of the first row of | A | are
open vertical bar table row cell space space 4 end cell cell space space space space space 5 end cell row cell negative 4 end cell cell space space space minus 7 end cell end table close vertical bar comma space space space space minus open vertical bar table row 3 cell space space space space space space space 5 end cell row cell negative 2 end cell cell space space minus 7 end cell end table close vertical bar comma space space open vertical bar table row 3 cell space space space space space space 4 end cell row cell negative 2 end cell cell space space minus 4 end cell end table close vertical bar
i.e., – 8,  11,  –4 respectively
Co-factors of the elements of the second row of | A | are
negative open vertical bar table row 0 cell space space minus 1 end cell row cell negative 4 end cell cell space space minus 7 end cell end table close vertical bar comma space open vertical bar table row 0 cell space space minus 1 end cell row cell negative 2 end cell cell space space minus 7 end cell end table close vertical bar comma space space minus open vertical bar table row cell space 0 end cell cell space space space space space space 0 end cell row cell negative 2 end cell cell space space minus 4 end cell end table close vertical bar
i.e., 4, – 2,   0 respectively.
Co-factors of the elements of the third row of | A | are
open vertical bar table row 0 cell space space minus 1 end cell row 4 cell space space space 5 end cell end table close vertical bar comma space space space minus open vertical bar table row 0 cell space space space minus 1 end cell row 3 cell space space space space space 5 end cell end table close vertical bar comma space space minus open vertical bar table row 0 cell space space space space 0 end cell row cell negative 2 end cell cell space space minus 4 end cell end table close vertical bar
i.e.,   4, – 3, 0 respectively.
therefore space space space space space space adj. space straight A space equals space open square brackets table row cell negative 8 end cell cell space space 11 end cell cell space space minus 4 end cell row 4 cell space minus 2 end cell cell space space space space space 0 end cell row 4 cell negative 3 end cell cell space space space space space 0 end cell end table close square brackets to the power of apostrophe space equals space open square brackets table row cell negative 8 end cell cell space space 4 end cell cell space space 4 end cell row 11 cell negative 2 end cell cell negative 3 end cell row cell negative 4 end cell cell space 0 end cell cell space space 0 end cell end table close square brackets
Now comma space straight A to the power of negative 1 end exponent space equals space fraction numerator adj. space straight A over denominator open vertical bar straight A close vertical bar end fraction space equals space 1 fourth open square brackets table row cell negative 8 end cell cell space space 4 end cell cell space space space space space 4 end cell row 11 cell space minus 2 end cell cell space space minus 3 end cell row cell negative 4 end cell cell space space 0 end cell cell space space space space 0 end cell end table close square brackets
therefore space space space space space AA to the power of negative 1 end exponent space equals space 1 fourth open square brackets table row 0 cell space space 0 end cell cell space space minus 1 end cell row 3 cell space space 4 end cell cell space space space space space 5 end cell row cell negative 2 end cell cell negative 4 end cell cell space minus 7 end cell end table close square brackets space open square brackets table row cell negative 8 end cell cell space space space space 4 end cell cell space space space space space 4 end cell row 11 cell space minus 2 end cell cell space space minus 3 end cell row cell negative 4 end cell cell space space space 0 end cell cell space space space space space space 0 end cell end table close square brackets
space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space equals space 1 fourth open square brackets table row cell 0 plus 0 plus 4 end cell cell space space space space 0 plus 0 plus 0 end cell cell space space space space space space 0 plus 0 plus 0 end cell row cell negative 24 plus 44 minus 20 space end cell cell space 12 minus 8 plus 0 end cell cell space space space space space space 12 minus 12 plus 0 end cell row cell 16 minus 44 plus 28 end cell cell space minus 8 plus 8 plus 0 end cell cell space space space space minus 8 plus 12 plus 0 end cell end table close square brackets space
space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space equals space 1 fourth open square brackets table row 4 cell space 0 end cell cell space space 0 end cell row 0 cell space space 4 end cell cell space 0 end cell row 0 cell space space 0 space end cell 4 end table close square brackets space equals space open square brackets table row 1 cell space space 0 end cell cell space space 0 end cell row 0 cell space 1 end cell cell space space 0 end cell row 0 cell space 0 end cell cell space space 1 end cell end table close square brackets space equals space straight I
straight A to the power of negative 1 end exponent straight A space equals space 1 fourth open square brackets table row cell negative 8 end cell cell space space space space 4 end cell cell space space space space 4 end cell row 11 cell space space minus 2 end cell cell space space minus 3 end cell row cell negative 4 end cell cell space space 0 end cell cell space space 0 end cell end table close square brackets space open square brackets table row 0 cell space space 0 end cell cell space space minus 1 end cell row 3 cell space space 4 end cell cell space space space 5 end cell row cell negative 2 end cell cell space space minus 4 end cell cell space space minus 7 end cell end table close square brackets
space space space space space space space space space space space space equals space 1 fourth open square brackets table row cell 0 plus 12 minus 8 end cell cell space space space 0 plus 16 minus 16 end cell cell space space 8 plus 20 minus 28 end cell row cell 0 minus 6 plus 6 end cell cell 0 minus 8 plus 12 end cell cell negative 11 minus 10 plus 21 end cell row cell 0 plus 0 plus 0 end cell cell 0 plus 0 plus 0 end cell cell 4 plus 0 plus 0 end cell end table close square brackets
space space space space space space space space space space space space space equals space 1 fourth open square brackets table row 4 cell space space space 0 end cell cell space space space 0 end cell row 0 cell space space 4 end cell cell space space 0 end cell row 0 cell space space 0 end cell cell space space 4 end cell end table close square brackets space equals space open square brackets table row 1 cell space space 0 end cell cell space space 0 end cell row 0 cell space space 1 end cell cell space space 0 end cell row 0 cell space space 0 end cell cell space space 1 end cell end table close square brackets space equals space straight I
therefore space space straight A space straight A to the power of negative 1 end exponent space equals space straight A to the power of negative 1 end exponent straight A space space equals straight I
