Problem 8: Recall that an elementary matrix is a matrix obtained by applying a single elementary row operation - swapping two rows, scaling a row, adding a multiple of one row to another - to an identity matrix. Let E be an elementary matrix. Prove that det(E¹) = det(E), where Et denotes the transpose of E.

please show clear,thanks , linear algebra proof question
Branch of mathematics concerned with mathematical structures that are closed under operations like addition and scalar multiplication. It is the study of linear combinations, vector spaces, lines and planes, and some mappings that are used to perform linear transformations. Linear algebra also includes vectors, matrices, and linear functions. It has many applications from mathematical physics to modern algebra and coding theory.
