Question 1 • AVA: Algebra II w/ Statistics - S1/Q1
A singular matrix has no inverse, and its determinant is 0, so statement A is true. An invertible matrix has a nonzero determinant, and the determinant of its inverse is the reciprocal of that value—not zero. The identity matrix has determinant 1, while a zero matrix has determinant 0.
