X should be either 6 or -6.

Given:

Matrix: \left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&x\\x&9\end{array}\right]

To Find:

Value of x if the matrix given does not have a multiplicative inverse.

Solution:

For a square matrix to have a multiplicative inverse it needs to be non-singular which means its determinant needs to be non-zero

So if the determinant of the given matrix is zero it doesn't have a multiplicative inverse.

To find the determinant of a 2x2 square matrix we use:

det(A) = ad - bc

det(A) = (4)9 - xx = 0

36 - x^{2} = 0

x = \sqrt{36}

x = 6, -6

Answer: x should be either 6 or -6 for A to not have a multiplicative inverse.

Given: We are given the matrix \left[\begin{array}{cc}4&x\\x&9\end{array}\right]

To Find: We need to find the value of x for which the given matrix does not have a multiplicative inverse.

Step-by-Step Explanation: Firstly, we need to see a definition and a property:

Definition of Singular matrix: If determinant of a given matrix is 0, then the matrix is called singular matrix.

Property: A Singular matrix is not invertible.

Step 1: Calculating the determinant of the given matrix:

For a 2x2 matrix, \left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right] the determinant = ad-bc

For A matrix, det(A) = 4*9-x^2

                                = 36-x^2

Step 2: Solving the equation 36-x^2 = 0 , will give us the value of x for which the multiplicative inverse of A does not exist.

36-x^2=0

36=x^2

x= \sqrt{36} or -\sqrt{36}

x=6 or -6
