Consider the matrices P=[120−113]P=\begin{bmatrix}1&2&0\\-1&1&3\end{bmatrix}, Q=[21011−2]Q=\begin{bmatrix}2&1\\0&1\\1&-2\end{bmatrix} and R=[3−120]R=\begin{bmatrix}3&-1\\2&0\end{bmatrix}. a. (i) Find QRQR. b. (ii) Find P(QR)P(QR). c. (iii) Find PQPQ. d. (iv) Find (PQ)R(PQ)R. e. (v) Prove that P(QR)=(PQ)RP(QR)=(PQ)R for the given matrices.
