A linear transformation \[T: \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}^2\] is represented by the matrix \[A = \begin{pmatrix} 3 & 1 \\ 2 & 1 \end{pmatrix}.\] a) Determine the inverse matrix \[A^{-1}\] by finding the determinant and using the inverse formula. Show all working. b) Hence verify that \[A \cdot A^{-1} = I\] where \[I\] is the identity matrix.
