Answer

\[ M= \left[ {\begin{array}{cc} 2/3 & 4/3 & 3\\ 1 & 1 & 3 \\ 1/3 & 2/3 & 1 \\ \end{array} } \right] \]

Work Step by Step

We plug this into a graphing calculator as stated into the calculator. It is important to remember the calculator will find the inverse by solving for a second matrix, and thus the answer will be a decimal on most calculator. If using a TI calculator, pushing $\triangle frac$ will put the answer into fractions. After doing above we get... \[ M= \left[ {\begin{array}{cc} 2/3 & 4/3 & 3\\ 1 & 1 & 3 \\ 1/3 & 2/3 & 1 \\ \end{array} } \right] \]
