We have been given two matrices a and b. A has 6 rows and 7 columns, while b has 7 rows and 8 columns.

Since we know that order matters in matrix multiplication. In order for matrix multiplication to be defined number of columns in the first matrix should be equal to the number of rows of in the second matrix.

We can see that number of columns in matrix a and number of rows in matrix b is 7.

Therefore, size of ab will be equal to number of rows of matrix a and number of columns of matrix b that is 6 by 8.

Now we will see whether ba is defined or not. We can see columns in matrix b are 8 and rows in matrix a are 6, which is not equal. So we can say that ba is not defined.

Therefore, size of ba is not defined (dne).

Need help what are the classifications of each system
ratelena [41]
You can graph them on Desmos, then use this attachment to find out the classification.

In the first system, they're the same line and have infinitely many solutions, therefore the answer is consistent, dependent.

In the second system, they're parallel lines with no solution, therefore the answer is inconsistent.

In the third system, they intersect and they have one solution, therefore the answer is consistent, independent.

In the fourth system, they're the same line and have infinitely many solutions, therefore the answer is consistent, dependent.
