Let A = Construct a 4x2 matrix D


Let A = image.png Construct a 4x2 matrix D, using only 1 and 0 as entries, such that AD = I2. Is it possible that  CA =I4 for some 4X2 matrix C? Explain.

 Is it possible that CA = I4 for some 4 x 2 matrix C? Explain. Choose the correct answer below.

 A. No, because neither C nor A are invertible. When writing lm as the product of two matrices, since lm is invertible, those two matrices will also be invertible.

 B. Yes, because C is a 4 x2 matrix and A is a 2 x4 matrix, making CA a 4x4 matrix. For every mxn matrix, there exists an nxm matrix such that the product of the two matrices is lm

 C. No, because if it were true, then CAx would equal x for all x in R4. Since the columns of A are linearly dependent, Ax=0 for some nonzero vector x. For such an x, x= Ix = CAx = 0, a contradiction. Hence, CA cannot equal lm.

D. Yes, if C=AT. The product of any mxn matrix and its transpose is lm
