I need help with these two questions....
I need to discuss what is meant by 'pre-multiplication' in Matrix Analysis. Anyone any ideas/websites?
...and also, I ned to explain why commutative law doesnt work for matricies.
Ive looked on the web for answers, but failed to come accross anything!
can somebody please help?
Thanks
Cummuative law states that a x b = ab and b x a =ab ... this doesnt apply for matrixes...Originally Posted by richard_c
because its row by column system... if i was to prove this.. i would simply do a [[a,b][c,d]]x[[e,f][g,h]] then do [[e,f][g,h]]x [[a,b][c,d]] show they are not the same
Premultiplication is when you try and get rid of the matrix on one side you times it by the inverse yes... so then you times the other side by the inverse in the same fashion e.g
A x B = X
A^-1xA x B = A^(-1)X
B = A^(-1)X
