If there is an n × n matrix B such that then B is called the inverse of A and we write B = A –1 (read “A inverse”).

Since these two matrices are equal, you must have 0 = 1. Because this is a false statement, the matrix A does not have an inverse.

All rights reserved PROCEDURE FOR FINDING THE INVERSE OF A MATRIX Let A be an n × n matrix. 1.Form the n × 2n augmented matrix [A|I], where I is the n × n identity matrix. 2.If there is a sequence of row operations that transforms A into I, then this same sequence of row operations will transform [A|I] into [I|B], where B = A –1. 3.Check your work by showing that AA –1 = I.

10. 10 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved PROCEDURE FOR FINDING THE INVERSE OF A MATRIX If it is not possible to transform A into I by row operations, then A does not have an inverse. (This occurs if, at any step in the process, you obtain a matrix [C|D] in which C has a row of zeros.)

To produce one unit of E requires unit of E and unit of F. To produce one unit of F requires unit of E and unit of F. Then the interindustry consumption is given by the matrix to the right.
