3. (a) For the following matrices, calculate AB, BA, $AB^T$ and $B^TA$ if possible. If not, explain why. $\begin{pmatrix} 0 & -1 & 0 \ 4 & 9 & 2 \ 8 & -1 & 7 \end{pmatrix}$, $B = \begin{pmatrix} 2 & 1 \ -3 & 4 \ 1 & 6 \end{pmatrix}$ (b) Solve the given equation for X. $A = \begin{pmatrix} -4 & 0 \ 1 & -5 \ -3 & 2 \end{pmatrix}$, $B = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 2 \ -2 & 1 \ 4 & 4 \end{pmatrix}$, $3X + 2A = B$ 4. Prove that if A and B are symmetrical matrices and AB = BA then AB is also a symmetrical matrix.
