(D) \((A+B)^{-1}=A^{-1}+B^{-1}\)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A (A), (B) and (C) only
  2. B (A) and (B) only
  3. C (A), (B) and (D) only

Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) (A) and (B) only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(A) \(\left|A^{-1}\right|=|A|^{-1}\): Correct. (B) \(\operatorname{adj} A=|A| A^{-1}\): Correct (since \(A^{-1} = \frac{1}{|A|} \operatorname{adj} A\)). (C) \((A B)^{-1}=A^{-1} B^{-1}\): Incorrect (\((A B)^{-1}=B^{-1} A^{-1}\)). (D) \((A+B)^{-1}=A^{-1}+B^{-1}\): Incorrect.…
