det(A)22

Invertible 3x3 matrix: det(A) = 22, adjoint and inverse computed above.

  • The determinant of your 3x3 matrix is 22.
  • The inverse A⁻¹ = adj(A) / 22 is shown above. Multiply A by this to recover the identity matrix.
  • Key identity check: A * adj(A) = 22 * I. Multiply A by adj(A) and you get 22 on every diagonal entry and 0 elsewhere.
  • The adjoint is found by computing each cofactor C_ij = (-1)^(i+j) * det(submatrix), then transposing the result.

Next stepUse A⁻¹ = adj(A) / 22 to solve the system Ax = b: multiply both sides by A⁻¹ to get x = A⁻¹ b.
