Example Questions

Example Question #605 : Vectors And Vector Operations

Find the determinant of the matrix $A=\begin{vmatrix} -5& 3\\2 &2 \end{vmatrix}$

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The determinant of a 2x2 matrix can be found by cross multiplying terms as follows:

$det\begin{vmatrix} a&b \\ c&d \end{vmatrix}=ad-bc$

For the matrix $A=\begin{vmatrix} -5& 3\\2 &2 \end{vmatrix}$

The determinant is thus:

|A|=-10-6=-16

Example Question #16 : Matrices

Find the determinant of the matrix $A=\begin{vmatrix} -8&3 \\-3 &5 \end{vmatrix}$

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The determinant of a 2x2 matrix can be found by cross multiplying terms as follows:

$det\begin{vmatrix} a&b \\ c&d \end{vmatrix}=ad-bc$

For the matrix $A=\begin{vmatrix} -8&3 \\-3 &5 \end{vmatrix}$

The determinant is thus:

|A|=-40-(-9)=-31

Example Question #11 : Matrices

Find the determinant of the matrix $A=\begin{vmatrix} 1&4 &2 \\-3 &0 &5 \\2 &7 & 0\end{vmatrix}$

Possible Answers:

108

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The determinant of a 3x3 matrix can be found via a means of reduction into three 2x2 matrices as follows:

$det\begin{vmatrix} a&b&c \\ d&e&f\\g&h&i \end{vmatrix}=a\begin{Vmatrix} e&f \\ h&i \end{Vmatrix}-b\begin{Vmatrix} d&f \\ g&i \end{Vmatrix}+c\begin{Vmatrix} d&e \\ g&h \end{Vmatrix}$

These can then be further reduced via the method of finding the determinant of a 2x2 matrix:

$det\begin{vmatrix} a&b&c \\ d&e&f\\g&h&i \end{vmatrix}=a(ei-fh)-b(di-fg)+c(dh-eg)$

For the matrix $A=\begin{vmatrix} 1&4 &2 \\-3 &0 &5 \\2 &7 & 0\end{vmatrix}$

The determinant is thus:

|A|=1(0*0-7*5)-4(-3*0-2*5)+2(-3*7-2*0)=-37

Example Question #12 : Matrices

Find the determinant of the matrix $A=\begin{vmatrix} 2&8 \\1 &7 \end{vmatrix}$

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The determinant of a 2x2 matrix can be found by cross multiplying terms as follows:

$det\begin{vmatrix} a&b \\ c&d \end{vmatrix}=ad-bc$

For the matrix $A=\begin{vmatrix} 2&8 \\1 &7 \end{vmatrix}$

The determinant is thus:

|A|=14-8=6

Example Question #13 : Matrices

Find the determinant of the matrix $A=\begin{vmatrix} 8& 11\\-4 & 1\end{vmatrix}$

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The determinant of a 2x2 matrix can be found by cross multiplying terms as follows:

$det\begin{vmatrix} a&b \\ c&d \end{vmatrix}=ad-bc$

For the matrix $A=\begin{vmatrix} 8& 11\\-4 & 1\end{vmatrix}$

The determinant is thus:

|A|=8-(-44)=52

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The determinant of a 3x3 matrix can be found via a means of reduction into three 2x2 matrices as follows:

$det\begin{vmatrix} a&b&c \\ d&e&f\\g&h&i \end{vmatrix}=a\begin{Vmatrix} e&f \\ h&i \end{Vmatrix}-b\begin{Vmatrix} d&f \\ g&i \end{Vmatrix}+c\begin{Vmatrix} d&e \\ g&h \end{Vmatrix}$

$det\begin{vmatrix} a&b&c \\ d&e&f\\g&h&i \end{vmatrix}=a(ei-fh)-b(di-fg)+c(dh-eg)$

For the matrix $A=\begin{vmatrix} -1&5 &3 \\ 7&11 &2 \\1 &4 &6 \end{vmatrix}$

The determinant is thus:

|A|=-1(11(6)-4(2))-5(7(6)-1(2))+3(7(4)-1(11))=-207

Example Question #22 : Matrices

Find the determinant of the matrix $A=\begin{vmatrix} 13&-5 \\ 3&1 \end{vmatrix}$

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The determinant of a 2x2 matrix can be found by cross multiplying terms as follows:

$det\begin{vmatrix} a&b \\ c&d \end{vmatrix}=ad-bc$

For the matrix $A=\begin{vmatrix} 13&-5 \\ 3&1 \end{vmatrix}$

The determinant is thus:

|A|=13-(-15)=28
