\xprob{15} What is the determinant of $(AB)^T$?
$$A=
\left[
\begin{array}{rrrr}
 1 & 0 & 0 & 0   \\
 6 &-1 & 0 & 0   \\
 7 & 0 & 2 & 0   \\
 2 & 1 & 0 & 3   \\
\end{array}
\right]
\;\;\;\;
B=
\left[
\begin{array}{rrrr}
 2 & 1 & 1 & 4   \\
 0 &-1 & 2 & 0   \\
 0 & 0 & 1 &-3   \\
 0 & 0 & 0 & 4   \\

$$AX=x_1{\rm col}_1(A)+\ldots +x_n{\rm col}_n(A).$$

$$A=

Find an invertible matrix $P$ and diagonal
matrix $D$ with $A=PDP^{-1}$.


\xprob{15} Use Cramer's rule to solve:
$$       x - y = 2 $$

\xprob{15} Suppose $A$ is an invertible matrix and $\lambda$ is an
eigenvalue of $A$.

(null($L)=\{{\bf 0}\}$), and
$v_1,\ldots,v_n$ are linearly independent
vectors in $V$.  Prove that $L(v_1),\ldots,L(v_n)$ are linearly independent.

 $B$ is a $12\times 13$ matrix, and $C=AB$.  Prove that
 $C$ is not invertible.



\xprob{25} Let $\reals^{4\times 1}$ have the inner product defined by
