Use an augmented matrix and row operations to find $A^{-1}$, if it exists. (If the inverse does not exist, enter DNE into any cell.) $A = \begin{bmatrix} 3 & -1 & 9 \\ 1 & -1 & 4 \\ 4 & -4 & 20 \end{bmatrix}$

Step 1
To do this, we will use an augmented matrix and row operations. Let's assume the given matrix A is: $$ A = \begin{bmatrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{bmatrix} $$ Now, we will create an augmented matrix by combining matrix A with the identity matrix Show more…
