If the inverse doesn't exist, enter DNE in all answer boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2×2 matrix since the matrix consists of 2rows and 2columns, to find its inverse using row reduction method, we will augment the matrix given with a 2×2 identity matrix before carrying out the reduction on the resulting 2×4 matrices. The resulting matrix must be an identity matrix augmented with the inverse of the matrix in question. The process of reduction is as shown in simple steps.

[A | I] -> [I | A-¹] where

A is the given matrix

I is the 2×2 identity matrix

A-¹ is the inverse of the matrix
