   using the following steps.

       (a) Show that

       (b) Show that

(c) Apply (a) to each term on the left side of (b) to show that

       (d) Solve the equation in (c) for            , use the result of Exercise 5, and then simplify.

   Use the result in Exercise 7 to show that

   Let R be a row-echelon form of an invertible     matrix. Show that solving the linear system  by back-substitution
9. requires

     Show that to reduce an invertible        matrix to by the text method requires
10.

Note Assume that no row interchanges are required.

Consider the variation of Gauss–Jordan elimination in which zeros are introduced above and below a leading 1 as soon as it is
