  • \$\begingroup\$ If I convert the resistances into conductances, and combine the 5 matrices (one for each resistor and one for the transformer), then I get a final matrix with the upper left corner value as A=.75, as a conductance value. Inverted into a resistance, this would be 1.333. (I do follow your approach. But since I'm not familiar with the terminology used in this area, I can't really help at this time.) \$\endgroup\$

If you reflect the secondary load (2 + 5 ohms) back into the primary it becomes 7/4. The current in the primary of the transformer is V1/(2 + 7/4) = V1/3.75. The current in the secondary is 1/2 of that or V1/7.5. V2 is just 5 times the secondary current or 5V1/7.5. If A = V1/V2, then A = 7.5/5 = 1.5. So you are correct and your book is in error.
