Use part (a) of Theorem 1.6.3 to prove part (b).
26.

     What restrictions must be placed on x and y for the following matrices to be invertible?
27.

         (a)

         (b)

         (c)

28.

     (a) If A is an matrix and if b is an matrix, what conditions would you impose to ensure

     that the equation                                         has a unique solution for x?

     (b) Assuming that your conditions are satisfied, find a formula for the solution in terms of an
          appropriate inverse.

     Suppose that A is an invertible matrix. Must the system of equations                      have a unique
29. solution? Explain your reasoning.

     Is it possible to have  without B being the inverse of A? Explain your reasoning.
30.

     Create a theorem by rewriting Theorem 1.6.5 in contrapositive form (see Exercise 34 of Section 1.4).
