Question: Suppose we have one matrix A = [ 4 5 8 7 ] , and a vector which is y = [ 3 4 ]

Suppose we have one matrix A=[4587], and a vector which is y=[34], and we
would like to solve a linear system Ax=y, where x is an unknown vector. (20`,5
each)
(1) Determine the value of x using the standard inverse: x=A-1y
(2) Determine the value of tilde(x) using the so-called pseudo inverse: tilde(x)=(AT(A))-1ATy,
and show if x equals to tilde(x).
(3) For an arbitrary matrix A which is invertible, does x always equal to tilde(x), and why?
(give the derivation)
(4) Assume now A=[458727], and y=[342], how can we calculate the vector x?
Suppose we have one matrix A = [ 4 5 8 7 ] , and
