yes, it is true that the transpose of the transpose of a matrix is the original matrix
-7 (negative 7) transpose the 9x then transpose the 6. divide both sides by 3x and your answer will be -7 =]
Another sparse matrix.
Next to your 4x4 matrix, place the 4x4 identity matrix on the right and adjoined to the one you want to invert. Now you can use row operations and change your original matrix on the left to a 4x4 identity matrix. Each time you do a row operation, make sure you do the same thing to the rows of the original identity matrix. You end up with the identity now on the left and the inverse on the right. You can also calculate the inverse using the adjoint. The adjoint matrix is computed by taking the transpose of a matrix where each element is cofactor of the corresponding element in the original matrix. You find the cofactor t of the matrix created by taking the original matrix and removing the row and column for the element you are calculating the cofactor of. The signs of the cofactors alternate, just as when computing the determinant
This is not a question its a statmant
