Using elementary transformations, find the inverse of the matrix`[[2,-3],[-1, 2]]`

Answer» Here, `A = [[2,-3],[-1,2]]`
We know, `A = IA`
`=>[[2,-3],[-1,2]]= [[1,0],[0,1]]A`
Applying `R_1->R_1+R_2`
`=>[[1,-1],[-1,2]] = [[1,1],[0,1]]A`
Applying `R_2->R_1+R_2`
`=>[[1,-1],[0,1]] = [[1,1],[1,2]]A`
Applying `R_1->R_1+R_2`
`=>[[1,0],[0,1]] = [[2,3],[1,2]]A`
`=>I = [[-1,3],[-1/2,1]]A`
Comparing it with , `I = A^-1A`
So, `A^-1 = [[2,3],[1,2]]`
