Step by Step Solution

 Step 1: Matrix Definition

Matrix is a set of numbers arranged in rows and columns so as to form a rectangular array.

The numbers are called the elements, or entries, of the matrix.

If there are m rows and n columns, the matrix is said to be an “m by n ” matrix, written “ m×n.”

Step 2: To check whether the given condition is true or false

Let,

A=4401.

Clearly,

det A = 4 , however, for

V=11

We have,

Av=81Av=65>32Av=4v

Therefore, the given statement is true.
