Given matrices G and H below, which statement is true?


G= 7 5
4 3



H= -6 -5
-4 -2

A.) Matrices G and H are not inverses of each other because G + H does not equal I.

B.) Matrices G and H are not inverses of each other because GH does not equal I.

C.) Matrices G and H are inverses of each other because GH = I.

E.) Matrices G and H are inverses of each other because G + H = I.

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given matrices are

[tex]G=\begin{bmatrix}7&5\\ \:4&3\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]H=\begin{bmatrix}-6&-5\\ \:-4&-2\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Two matrices are inverse of each other if product of both matrices is identity matrix, i.e., [tex]I=\begin{bmatrix}1&0\\ \:0&1\end{bmatrix}[/tex].

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}7&5\\ \:4&3\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}-6&-5\\ \:-4&-2\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}7\left(-6\right)+5\left(-4\right)&7\left(-5\right)+5\left(-2\right)\\ 4\left(-6\right)+3\left(-4\right)&4\left(-5\right)+3\left(-2\right)\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}-62&-45\\ -36&-26\end{bmatrix}\neq I[/tex]

Matrices G and H are not inverses of each other because GH does not equal I.

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Answer:

B. Matrices G and H are not inverses of each other because GH not equal to I.
