The matrix that is equal to the considered matrix [-6,-6.5,1.7; 2, -8..5, 19.3 ] is given by: Option D: [-6,-6.5,1.7; 2, -8..5, 19.3 ]
<h3>When are two matrices called being equal?</h3>Two matrices are equal if and only if their shapes are same, and they've got the same elements for each corresponding row and column positions.
The missing options are specified in the image attached below.
The considered matrix is:
It has 2 rows and 3 columns.
Evaluating each of the options:
Option A and B are wrong as they've got 3 rows and 2 columns, which makes their shape not matching with the shape of the considered matrix.
Option C although has got 2 rows and 3 colums, but its elements are not matching with corresponding elements of the considered matrix.
Option D has 2 rows and 3 colums and its each element matches with the corresponding element of the considered matrix. (ie, for example, element common in first row and first column in option D is -6, and so as for the considered matrix, and similarly, all correspoding elements for each row and column is same in both matrices.)
Thus, the matrix that is equal to the considered matrix [-6,-6.5,1.7; 2, -8..5, 19.3 ] is given by: Option D: [-6,-6.5,1.7; 2, -8..5, 19.3 ]
