Grade 12 Matrices CCSS: HSN-VM.C.6

Matrices are widely used in image processing, where images are taken and manipulated in some way. To simplify this, consider a grayscale image (an image without color, but with varying hues of gray). Each pixel in the image has an assigned value, from 0 (completely black) to 255 (completely white). Usually, an image would be comprised of thousands or more pixels, but again, for simplification, consider a 3-by-3 matrix. Let the image be represented by the matrix A, as follows.

A=[124127129118120124115119121]

Which of the following operations would "invert" the grayscale image- that is, give the opposite intensity of each pixel? For example, if the original image has a pixel that was almost white, 4, the same pixel in the resulting image would be 251, almost black.
  1. A-1 (inverse of matrix A)
  2. AT (transpose of matrix A)
  3. 255[111111111]-A
  4. A-255[111111111]
