Question

How do I solve the first image? I do not understand the absolute value step of solving this question |A|. I don't know what it does, or why we do it. Please explain it to me. To illustrate what I mean I have sent you another image portraying the absolute value step...

Thank you :)

Step 1: Calculate |A|
|1 0 0
|A| = |3 3
15 2 -1
13 3
5 21
= 1(-3 – 0) + 0 + 0 = -3
Since |A| # 0,A-1exists
