    Problem with inverse matrixes 6x6 matrix

    Hi,

    I get an error when I try to inverse the 6x6 matrix.
    Should give me a 6x6 matrix again.

    I've attached a screenshot.Screenshot 2014-03-22 22.07.28.png

    First, select the results range eg: B34:G39
    Then place the formula in the formula bar: =MINVERSE(B15:G20)
    Press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to array-enter the formula
    -------------------------
    Any good? Wave it, whack the the little star at the bottom left of my responses

    Perhaps you might want to check up Excel help on that function?
    This remark seems relevant to your instance:
    Some square matrices cannot be inverted and will return the #NUM! error value with MINVERSE.

    Re: Problem with inverse matrixes 6x6 matrix

    In a single cell, enter =mdeterm(B15:G20)

    What's that return?

    Re: Problem with inverse matrixes 6x6 matrix

    Doh -- never mind. The first two columns are the same, so the matrix is singular (non-invertible).

    So are the third and fourth columns.
