Given,
The matrix A=233223322

The determinant of A, |A| = 2(4 + 6) + 3(4 – 9) + 3( – 4 – 6) = 20 – 15 – 30 = – 25 ≠ 0

This indicates that the matrix have inverse

In order to find adjoint of the matrix A let's find the minors of the matrix A =232223322232332223322332332323232322=1051005515010

=(1)1+1(10)(1)1+2(5)(1)1+3(10)(1)2+1(0)(1)2+2(5)(1)2+3(5)(1)3+1(15)(1)3+2(0)(1)3+3(10)=1051005515010

Transpose of the matrix A with co-factors

CAT=1051005515010T=1001555010510=adjA

The inverse of the matrix A,A1=1|A| adj A

=1251001555010510=1251001555010510=15203110212
