1. Write a user defined function in MATLAB to obtain transpose of any matrix given as an input,
compare it with inbuilt transpose function in MATLAB (Hint: use for loop to convert 𝑎𝑎(𝑖𝑖, 𝑗𝑗)−>
2 −5 7
𝑎𝑎(𝑗𝑗, 𝑖𝑖)). Test your output on simple matrix 𝐴𝐴 = �1 5 8�

1 2 6
3. Calculate the adjoint of a matrix E=�0 1 3�, also obtain the inverse of this matrix, compare your
0 0 6
result from inv function in the MATLAB.

4. Using the method of substitution, solve for 𝑥𝑥1 , 𝑥𝑥2 , and 𝑥𝑥3 in the following equations,

𝑥𝑥1 − 𝑥𝑥2 + 𝑥𝑥3 = 3

2𝑥𝑥1 + 𝑥𝑥2 − 𝑥𝑥3 = 0
3𝑥𝑥1 + 2𝑥𝑥2 + 2𝑥𝑥3 = 15

5. Using Cramer’s rule obtain the unknowns in the below equations, also mention the three
determinants you get in the process and show the procedure you followed.

2𝑥𝑥1 − 𝑥𝑥2 + 𝑥𝑥3 = −1,

3𝑥𝑥1 + 3𝑥𝑥2 + 9𝑥𝑥3 = 0,

3𝑥𝑥1 + 3𝑥𝑥2 + 5𝑥𝑥3 = 4.
