Question

What is the sum of entries a32 and b32 in A and B? (matrices)

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.  13

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure we can see two matrices A and B

To find the sum of a₃₂ and b₃₂

From the given attached figure we get

a₃₂ means that the third row second column element in the matrix A

b₃₂ means that the third row second column element in the matrix B

a₃₂ = 4 and b₃₂ = 9

a₃₂ + b₃₂ = 4 + 9

 = 13

The correct answer is option D.  13

Answer 2

$A={\begin{bmatrix}a_{11}&a_{12}&\cdots &a_{1n}\\a_{21}&a_{22}&\cdots &a_{2n}\\\vdots &\vdots &\ddots &\vdots \\a_{m1}&a_{m2}&\cdots &a_{mn}\end{bmatrix}}$

So

$a_{32}=4\\b_{32}=9\\\\a_{32}+b_{32}=4+9=13$
