Let A be an `mxxn` matrix. If there exists a matrix L of type `nxxm` such that `LA=I_(n)`, then L is called left inverse of A. Similarly, if there exists a matrix R of type `nxxm` such that `AR=I_(m)`, then R is called right inverse of A.
For example, to find right inverse of matrix
`A=[(1,-1),(1,1),(2,3)]`, we take `R=[(x,y,x),(u,v,w)]`
and solve`AR=I_(3)`, i.e.,
`[(1,-1),(1,1),(2,3)][(x,y,z),(u,v,w)]=[(1,0,0),(0,1,0),(0,0,1)]`
`{:(implies,x-u=1,y-v=0,z-w=0),(,x+u=0,y+v=1,z+w=0),(,2x+3u=0,2y+3v=0,2z+3w=1):}`
As this system of equations is inconsistent, we say there is no right inverse for matrix A.
The number of right inverses for the matrix `[(1,-1,2),(2,-1,1)]` is

A

` [{:(( 1)/(2),(1)/(2) ,0),( -(1)/(2),( 1)/(2) ,0) :}]`

B

` [{:( 2,-7,3),(-(1)/(2) ,(1)/(2) ,0) :}]`

C

` [{:( -(1)/(2) ,(1)/(2) ,0),( -(1)/(2) ,(1)/(2) ,0):}]`

D

` [{:( 0,3,-1),(-(1)/(2),(1)/(2) ,0):}]`

Let A be an mxxn matrix. If there exists a matrix L of type nxxm such that LA=I_(n) , then L is called left inverse of A. Similarly, if there exists a matrix R of type nxxm such that AR=I_(m) , then R is called right inverse of A. For example, to find right inverse of matrix A=[(1,-1),(1,1),(2,3)] , we take R=[(x,y,x),(u,v,w)] and solve AR=I_(3) , i.e., [(1,-1),(1,1),(2,3)][(x,y,z),(u,v,w)]=[(1,0,0),(0,1,0),(0,0,1)] {:(implies,x-u=1,y-v=0,z-w=0),(,x+u=0,y+v=1,z+w=0),(,2x+3u=0,2y+3v=0,2z+3w=1):} As this system of equations is inconsistent, we say there is no right inverse for matrix A.
