Start by multiplying the matrices by the corresponding scalars. Then, perform the subtraction.
- 28 & 60 20 & - 70
Practice makes perfect
We can see that the given matrices have the same dimensions, 2* 2. Multiplication by a scalar does not affect the dimension of a matrix, so it is possible to perform the addition and subtraction of the given matrices after multiplying them by scalars. We will start with the scalar multiplication.
