         (a) Express

     as a sum of four determinants whose entries contain no sums.
(b) Express

as a sum of eight determinants whose entries contain no sums.

     Prove that a square matrix A is invertible if and only if  is invertible.

                      Let A and B be matrices. You know from earlier work that and need not be equal.

                      20. Is the same true for  and ? Explain your reasoning.

                           Let A and B be matrices. You know from earlier work that is invertible if A and B are
                      21. invertible. What can you say about the invertibility of if one or both of the factors are

                           singular? Explain your reasoning.

                           Indicate whether the statement is always true or sometimes false. Justify each answer by giving
                      22. a logical argument or a counterexample.
