Given A = the 2 by 2 matrix with elements 5, 7,  negative 3, and 0, and B = the 2 by 2 matrix with elements 1, 2, 9, and negative 1, find the products AB and BA. What does this suggest about whether or not matrix multiplication is commutative?
Given A = the 2 by 3 matrix with elements 2, negative 1, 3, 0, 1, and 5, and B = the 3 by 3 matrix with elements 1, 0, 2, 0, 3, 4, negative 1, 5, and negative 3, find AB and BA.
Given A = the 2 by 2 matrix with elements 1, 0, 0, and negative 1, find A squared, A cubed, A to the fourth power, and A to the nth power
Given A = the 3 by 3 matrix with elements 1, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, and 1, find A squared, A cubed, A to the fourth power, and A to the nth power
Given A = the 3 by 3 matrix with elements 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, and 1, find A squared, A cubed, A to the fourth power, and A to the nth power
