    Solve X', X for Y: Matrix Algebra Help

    Yes, the ' is transpose. I get a11 ^2 + a21 ^2 = 50 a11 * a12 + a21 * a22 = 300 a12 ^2 + a22 ^2 = 1000 but I can't get the fourth equation?

    Solve X', X for Y: Matrix Algebra Help

    Find X if X' * X = (50, 300) (300, 1000) Then find Y if Y * X = (300, 2000) Problem is that when I try to solve for X (or X') first, I get three equations with four unknowns (a11, a12, a21, a22). Any help?
