Given, A= [ 3 2 2 5 ]
To find the inverse matrix, augment it with the identity matrix and perform row operations trying to make the identity matrix to the left. Then to the right will be inverse matrix.So, augment the matrix with identity matrix:
[ 3 2 | 1 0 2 5 | 0 1 ] R 2 = R 1 3 [ 1 2 3 | 1 3 0 2 5 | 0 1 ] R 2 = R 2 2 R 1 [ 1 2 3 | 1 3 0 0 11 3 | 2 3 1 ] R 2 = ( 3 11 ) R 2 [ 1 2 3 | 1 3 0 0 1 | 2 11 3 11 ] R 1 = R 1 ( 2 3 ) R 2 [ 1 0 | 5 11 2 11 0 1 | 2 11 3 11 ]
As can be seen, we have obtained the identity matrix to the left
A 1 = [ 5 11 2 11 2 11 3 11 ]
