Using matrices, construct a coefficient matrix and compute its inverse to find the solution vector. Verify the computed solution satisfies all given equations .

|(AB)^(-1)| = 1/|AB| = 8, implying |AB| = 1/8. Given |A|=2, |B| can be found as |AB| = |A|*|B| leading to |B| = 1/(8*2) = 1/16 .

To verify, compute A^(-1) first and multiply with A, then show the equality A^(-1)A results in 9I - A. Each side of the equation is evaluated and verified rigorously using the given properties and definitions .

Given A(Adj A) = 10I for a 3x3 matrix, the determinant of Adj A is 10, as A(Adj A) being a scalar multiple of the identity matrix indicates this relation .

The assertion states |Adj A| = |A|^(n-1), where n is the order of A. For a 3x3 matrix, |Adj A| = |A|^(3-1) = 5^2 = 25, aligning with the given structure for the assertion .

The determinant of the inverse of a matrix is the reciprocal of the original matrix's determinant. If |A| is 9, then |A^(-1)| is 1/9 .

Based on modifications: 1) (x-50)(y+50) = xy for unchanged area. 2) (x-10)(y-20) = xy - 5300 for reduced area .

Solve the system of equations formed from modifications to find x and y, the dimensions, then calculate the area as A = x * y using the found values .

For a 3x3 matrix, |A(Adj A)| is equal to |A|^3. Given |A|=12, |A(Adj A)| = 12^3 = 1728 .

det(A^(-1)) = 1/det(A). Therefore, the equation becomes 1/det(A) = (det A)^k, leading to k = -1 .
