Use product open square brackets table row 1 cell negative 1 end cell 2 row 0 2 cell negative 3 end cell row 3 cell negative 2 end cell 4 end table close square brackets space space open square brackets table row cell negative 2 end cell 0 1 row 9 2 cell negative 3 end cell row 6 1 cell negative 2 end cell end table close square bracketsto solve the system of equations x + 3z = 9,
–x + 2y – 2z = 4, 2x – 3y + 4z = –3

Solution
straight A space equals open square brackets table row 1 cell negative 1 end cell 2 row 0 2 cell negative 3 end cell row 3 cell negative 2 end cell 4 end table close square brackets space straight B space equals space open square brackets table row cell negative 2 end cell 0 1 row 9 2 cell negative 3 end cell row 6 1 cell negative 2 end cell end table close square brackets
AxB space equals space open square brackets table row 1 cell negative 1 end cell 2 row 0 2 cell negative 3 end cell row 3 cell negative 2 end cell 4 end table close square brackets space open square brackets table row cell negative 2 end cell 0 1 row 9 2 cell negative 3 end cell row 6 1 cell negative 2 end cell end table close square brackets
space equals open square brackets table row cell negative 2 minus 9 plus 12 space end cell cell space 0 minus 2 plus 2 space end cell cell space 1 plus 3 minus 4 space end cell row cell 0 plus 18 minus 18 space end cell cell space 0 plus 4 minus 3 space end cell cell space 0 minus 6 plus 6 end cell row cell negative 6 minus 18 plus 24 space end cell cell space 0 minus 4 plus 4 space end cell cell space 3 plus 6 minus 8 end cell end table close square brackets
equals open square brackets table row 1 0 0 row 0 1 0 row 0 0 1 end table close square brackets

Since A X B = I,
therefore, B = A-1..... (i)
Now, the given system of equations is
x+3z =9
-x+2y-2z =4
2x-3y+4z = -3
This can also be represented as,
open square brackets table row 1 0 3 row cell negative 1 end cell 2 cell negative 2 end cell row 2 cell negative 3 end cell 4 end table close square brackets open square brackets table row straight x row straight y row straight z end table close square brackets space equals space open square brackets table row 9 row 4 row cell negative 3 end cell end table close square brackets
Here comma space we space can space observe space that space open square brackets table row 1 0 3 row cell negative 1 end cell 2 cell negative 2 end cell row 2 cell negative 3 end cell 4 end table close square brackets space equals space straight A to the power of straight T
So comma space straight A to the power of straight T space open square brackets table row straight x row straight y row straight z end table close square brackets space equals space open square brackets table row 9 row 4 row cell negative 3 end cell end table close square brackets
Multiply space the space above space expression space by space left parenthesis straight A to the power of straight T right parenthesis to the power of negative 1 end exponent
open square brackets table row straight x row straight y row straight z end table close square brackets space equals space left parenthesis straight A to the power of straight T right parenthesis to the power of negative 1 end exponent space open square brackets table row 9 row 4 row cell negative 3 end cell end table close square brackets
open square brackets table row straight x row straight y row straight z end table close square brackets space equals space left parenthesis straight A to the power of straight T right parenthesis to the power of negative 1 end exponent space open square brackets table row 9 row 4 row cell negative 3 end cell end table close square brackets
open square brackets table row straight x row straight y row straight z end table close square brackets space equals space left parenthesis straight B right parenthesis to the power of straight T space space space space space open square brackets table row 9 row 4 row cell negative 3 end cell end table close square brackets
equals open square brackets table row cell negative 2 end cell 0 1 row 9 2 cell negative 3 end cell row 6 1 cell negative 2 end cell end table close square brackets to the power of straight T open square brackets table row 9 row 4 row cell negative 3 end cell end table close square brackets
equals open square brackets table row cell negative 18 plus 36 minus 18 end cell row cell 0 plus 8 minus 3 end cell row cell 9 minus 12 plus 6 end cell end table close square brackets
equals open square brackets table row 0 row 5 row 3 end table close square brackets
Hence x=0 y=5 and =3
