Question

Perform the indicated matrix operations given that and D are defined as follows. If an operation is not defined, state the reason. A+DA=[2−1253−1]B=[0−2321−5]C=[123−112−121]D=[−2313−24]A=\begin{bmatrix}2 & -1 & 2\ 5 & 3 & -1\end{bmatrix}\quad B=\begin{bmatrix}0 & -2\ 3 & 2\ 1 & -5\end{bmatrix}C=\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2 & 3\ -1 & 1 & 2\ -1 & 2 & 1\end{bmatrix}\quad D=\begin{bmatrix}-2 & 3 & 1\ 3 & -2 & 4\end{bmatrix}

Accepted Answer

Identify the dimensions of matrices A and D. To add two matrices, they must have the same number of rows and the same number of columns. Check if the number of rows in matrix A equals the number of rows in matrix D, and the number of columns in matrix A equals the number of columns in matrix D. If the dimensions match, proceed to add the corresponding elements of matrices A and D. This means adding each element in row i, column j of A to the element in row i, column j of D. Write the resulting matrix where each element is the sum of the corresponding elements from A and D, i.e., $$C_{ij} = A_{ij} + D_{ij}$$ for all i and j. If the dimensions do not match, state that the addition is not defined because matrix addition requires matrices to be of the same size.

$A = [\begin{matrix} 2 & - 1 & 2 \\ 5 & 3 & - 1 \end{matrix}]$
