How to multiply a matrices 3x3 by 3x2

The top row of matrix A (1, 2, 1) is multiplied with the first column of matrix B (1,0,-1) and the result is 1x1 + 2x0 + 1x -1 = 0 this is row 1 column 1 of the resultant matrix
The top row of matrix A (1,2,1) is multiplied with the second column of matrix B (-1, -1, 1) and the result is 1 x-1 + 2 x -1 + 1 x 1 = -2 , this is row 1 column 2 of the resultant matrix
Repeat with the second row of matrix A (-1,-1.-2) x (1,0,-1) = 1 this is row 2 column 1 of the resultant matrix, multiply the second row of A (-1,-1,-2) x (-1,-1,1) = 0, this is row 2 column 2 of the resultant
Repeat with the third row of matrix A( -1,1,-2) x (1,0, -1) = 1, this is row 3 column 1 of the resultant
the third row of A (-1,1,-2) x( -1,-1,1) = -2, this is row 3 column 2 of the resultant matrix

A leading bank is coming up with an investment that pays 8 percent interest compounded semiannually. What is the investment's ef

uranmaximum [27]

The effective rate is calculated in the following way:
$r = {(1 + \frac{i}{n} )}^{n} - 1$
where r is the effective annual rate, i the interest rate, and n the number of compounding periods per year (for example, 12 for monthly compounding).
our compounding period is 2 since the bank pays us semiannually(two times per year) and our interest rate is 8%
so lets plug in numbers:
$r = {(1 + \frac{8\%}{2}) }^{2} - 1 \\ r = {(1 + \frac{1}{25}) }^{2} - 1 \\ r = \frac{676}{625} - 1 \\ r = 0.0816 \: or \: 8.16\%$
