If A is a `2 xx 2 scalar matrix and 7 is the one of the elements in its principal diagonal, then the inverse of A is_____.A. `[{:((-1)/(7), 0), (0, (-1)/(7)):}]`B. `[{:(0, -7), (-7, 0):}]`C. `[{:(7, 0), (0, 7):}]`D. `[{:((1)/(7), 0), (0, (1)/(7)):}]`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
(i) Refer the definition of scalar matrix and write A.
(ii) `A^(-1) = (1)/(ad-bc)[{:(d, -b), (-c, a):}]`
