The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to evaluate the expression \((A(A+B)^{-1}B)^{-1}(AB)\) given that \(A\) and \(B\) are two non-singular matrices that commute. ### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Start with the expression**: \[ (A(A+B)^{-1}B)^{-1}(AB) \] 2. **Apply the property of the inverse**: The inverse of a product of matrices can be expressed as the product of their inverses in reverse order. Thus, we have: \[ (A(A+B)^{-1}B)^{-1} = B^{-1}((A+B)^{-1})^{-1}A^{-1} \] Since \(((A+B)^{-1})^{-1} = A+B\), we can rewrite it as: \[ = B^{-1}(A+B)A^{-1} \] 3. **Substitute back into the expression**: Now substituting back into the original expression gives: \[ B^{-1}(A+B)A^{-1}(AB) \] 4. **Simplify the expression**: We can simplify \(A^{-1}(AB)\) to \(B\) because: \[ A^{-1}(AB) = (A^{-1}A)B = IB = B \] Therefore, the expression becomes: \[ B^{-1}(A+B)B \] 5. **Distribute \(B\)**: Now we distribute \(B\) inside the parentheses: \[ B^{-1}(AB + B^2) \] 6. **Use the property of inverses**: Since \(B^{-1}B = I\), we can simplify further: \[ = B^{-1}AB + B^{-1}B^2 = B^{-1}AB + B \] 7. **Since \(A\) and \(B\) commute**: We can replace \(AB\) with \(BA\): \[ = B^{-1}BA + B = I + B = A + B \] ### Final Result Thus, the final result is: \[ (A(A+B)^{-1}B)^{-1}(AB) = A + B \]

To solve the problem, we need to evaluate the expression \((A(A+B)^{-1}B)^{-1}(AB)\) given that \(A\) and \(B\) are two non-singular matrices that commute. ### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Start with the expression**: \[ (A(A+B)^{-1}B)^{-1}(AB) \] ...
