If A,B and C are nxn matrice, with B and C nonsingular, and b is an n-vector, how would you implement the formula



x = B-1(2A+I)(C-1+A)b, without computing any matrix inverse?



I made it Bx=(2A+1)C-1(I+CA)b, but don't know how to pull out the C-1 from the middle in order to take the equation without matrices inverse,sigh.. but I don't know if I approached it right because I don't even get the question.

Please help me!
Thank you very much :frown:

The furthest I could come was by working out the parentheses:

CBx = (2CAC-1+2CA2+I+A)b

I hope someone else can get some answer...

What do you mean "implement the formula"? Is the goal to evaluate the right hand side of the original equation to get x?
