Answer

$T^{-1}(x_{1},x_{2})=(7x_{1}+9x_{2},4x_{1}+5x_{2})$

Work Step by Step

The standard matrix of $T$ is $A=\left[\begin{array}{ll} -5 & 9\\ 4 & -7 \end{array}\right]$. $\det A=ad-bc=(-5)(-7)-9\cdot 4=-1\neq 0,\quad$ so A is invertible. By Theorem 9, $T$ is also invertible and the standard matrix for $\mathrm{T}^{-1}$is $\mathrm{A}^{-1}.$ $\displaystyle \mathrm{A}^{-1}=\frac{1}{ad-bc}\left[\begin{array}{ll} d & -b\\ -c & a \end{array}\right]=(-1)\displaystyle \left[\begin{array}{ll} -7 & -9\\ -4 & -5 \end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll} 7 & 9\\ 4 & 5 \end{array}\right]$ $T^{-1}(x_{1},x_{2})=\left[\begin{array}{ll} 7 & 9\\ 4 & 5 \end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l} x_{1}\\ x_{2} \end{array}\right]$ $T^{-1}(x_{1},x_{2})=(7x_{1}+9x_{2},4x_{1}+5x_{2})$
