Multiply the Matrices [[6,2],[3,14],[4,8]][[3,2,1.50]]
Problem
Solution
Check the dimensions of the matrices to see if multiplication is possible. The first matrix is a
3×2 matrix and the second matrix is a1×3 matrix.Determine compatibility for matrix multiplication. For the product
A*B to exist, the number of columns in the first matrix must equal the number of rows in the second matrix.Compare the values where the first matrix has
2 columns and the second matrix has1 row.Conclude that since
2≠1 the matrices cannot be multiplied in the given order.
