LetA, be a3 ×3matrix, such thatA2-5A+7I=O.
Statement - I :A-1=17 5I-A.
Statement - II : The polynomialA3-2A2-3A+I,can be reduced to5A-4I.Then :

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

A2=5A-7I.....i 

AAA-1-5AA-1-7IA-1=O

AI=5I-7A-1

A-1=17(5I-A)

Hence, the statement I is true.

Now A3-2A2-3A+I

=A5A-7I-2A2-3A+I       {fromi

=5A2-7A-2A2-3A+I

=3A2-10A+I

=35A-7I-10A+I       {fromi}

=5A-20I

=5A-4I

Hence, Statement II is true.
