As learnt in concept

Inverse of a matrix -

 A^{-1}=\frac{1}{\left | A \right |}\cdot adjA

-

 

 A=BX

B^{-1}A=B^{-1}BX

B^{-1}A=X

B= \begin{bmatrix} 1 &0 \\ 0& 2 \end{bmatrix}                 \left | B \right |=2

adj B= \begin{bmatrix} 2 &0 \\ 0& 1 \end{bmatrix}         B^{-1}= \frac{1}{2}\begin{bmatrix} 2 &0 \\ 0& 1 \end{bmatrix}

Thus\ X = B^{-1}A

 =\frac{1}{2}\begin{bmatrix} 2 &0 \\ 0& 1 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 1 &2 \\ 3& -5 \end{bmatrix}

= \frac{1}{2}\begin{bmatrix} 2& 4\\ 3& -5 \end{bmatrix}
