Solution with the inverse matrix
The solution to the system A⋅x = b, where A is a square matrix is
x =
Solution by “division” of matrices
While the operation of division is not defined for matrices, we can use the calculator’s /key to “divide” vector b by matrix A to solve for x in the matrix equation A⋅x = b. The procedure for the case of “dividing” b by A is illustrated below for the example above.
The procedure is shown in the following screen shots (type in matrices A and vector b once more):
