Question

A=-2[[-6,4],[3,7],[12,10]] B=3[[-2,2,8],[8,5,6]]and D=-1[[-12,8],[6,14],[24,20]] are equal matrices ANSWERS a nd b are equal b and c are equal c and d are equal d and a are equal

Answer 1

Answer:

D and A are equal

Step-by-step explanation:

Two matrices A and B are said to be equal if both matrices have the same number of rows and columns. Given the following matrices

$A = -2\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-6&4\\3&7\\12&10\end{array}\right] \\multiplying\ the \ matrix\ through\ by\ -2\ will\ give\\A = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}12&-8\\-6&-14\\-24&-20\end{array}\right] \\\\\\B =3 \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&2&8\\8&5&6\end{array}\right] \\B = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-6&6&24\\24&15&18\end{array}\right] \\\\\\D = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}12&-8\\-6&-14\\-24&-20\end{array}\right]$

From the above matrices, it can be seen that matrix A and C both has 3 rows and 2 columns each which matrix b has 2 rows and 3 columns.

Based on the conclusion, it can be seen that matrices A and D are equal since they have the same number of rows and columns
