52, Suppose Ab = —A, Then det(A) = det(At) = det(—A) = (—1)" det(A). If n is odd, then det(A) =
~det(A) and hence det(A) = 0. Therefore, A is not invertible,
53, Expansion of the determinant of A across row one equals the expansion down column one of A’, so
det(A) = det(A*).
54, If A = (aij) is upper triangular, then det(A) = a11@29°++ Grn. But At is lower triangular with the same
diagonal entries, so det(A*) = a11422 +++ nn = det(A). :
Exercise Set 1.7
A factorization of a matrix, like factoring a quadratic polynomial, refers to writing a matrix as the product
of other matrices, Just like the resulting linear factors of a quadratic are useful and provide information about
the original quadratic polynomial, the lower triangular and upper triangular factors in an LU factorization
are easier to work with and can be used to provide information about the matrix. An elementary matrix is
obtained by applying one row operation to the identity matrix. For example,

Elementary Matrix
If a matrix A is multiplied by an elementary matrix E, the result is the same as applying to the matrix A the
corresponding row operation that defined E. For example, using the elerlentary matrix above
1 00 13 1 1 8 4
0 10 21 0/=/2 % 0
-1 041 121 0 -1 0

Also since each elementary row operation can be reversed, elementary matrices are invertible, To find an LU
factorization of A:
28 Chapter 1 Systems of Linear Equations and Matrices
e Row reduce the matrix A to an upper triangular matrix U.
e Use the corresponding elementary matrices to write U in the form Usa Ege EVA,
¢ If row interchanges are not required, then each of the elementary matrices is lower triangular, so that
A= ET 1, Ee yy is an LU factorization of A, If row interchanges are required, then a permutation
" matrix is also required. ,
When A = LU is an LU factorization of A, and A is invertible, then A = (LU)~' = U-!Z7', If the
determinant of A is required, then since L and U are triangular, their determinants are simply the product of
their diagonal entries and det(A) = det(LU) = det(L) det(U), An LU factorization can also be used to solve
a linear system, To solve the linear system :

30. Since A is row equivalent to B there are elementary matrices such that B= E,... EA and since B
is row equivalent to C there are elementary matrices such that C = D,,...D,B. Then C = Dn... D,B =
Dn... Di Em...,A and hence, A is row equivalent to C. :
31, If A is invertible, there are elementary matrices Ey,...,£, such that J = E,-++: 1A. Similarly, there
are elementary matrices D;,...,.De such that J = Dy:-.D,B. Then A =iB,' tee Ey'De: + D,B, so A is row
equivalent to B, :
32. a, Since L is invertible, the diagonal entries are all nonzero. b. The determinant of A is the product
of the diagonal entries of L and U, that is det(A) = ¢11+++Cnntiis++Unn. ¢. Since L is lower triangular
and invertible it is row equivalent to the identity matrix and can be reduced to J using only replacement
operations.
