Problem 3 (due Monday, October 11)
A student in a linear algebra class looks at her homework problem. It says: Prove that the product BA is the same for any 3×2 matrix A and 2×3 matrix B such that
AB=[3−103−10−11].
Unfortunately, the entry in the lower right corner of AB is missing. Find the missing entry and solve the homework problem.
The problem was solved by Ashton Keith, Maxwell T Meyers, and Pluto Wang. Our solution provides a good illustration how to use some basic tools from linear algebra. The submitted solutions are more ad hoc. For details see the following link Solution.
