Question

Solve the matrix equation for X.

Answer 1

`\large\boxed{\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&11\\-1&10\end{array}\right]}`

Explanation:

`\left[\begin{array}{ccc}8&-7\\1&-5\end{array}\right] +X=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}6&4\\0&5\end{array}\right]\\\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc}8&-7\\1&-5\end{array}\right] -\left[\begin{array}{ccc}8&-7\\1&-5\end{array}\right]+X=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}6&4\\0&5\end{array}\right] -\left[\begin{array}{ccc}8&-7\\1&-5\end{array}\right]\\\\X=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}6-8&4-(-7)\\0-1&5-(-5)\end{array}\right]\\\\X=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&11\\-1&10\end{array}\right]`
