have you learnt, multiplication of matrices ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sort of. Would I multiply the first row of the first matrix by the second matrix? Then again with the second row?

hartnn (hartnn):

1st row of the first matrix by the first column of 2nd matrix, \(\Large 1 \times 6 + 3 \times 2 + 4 \times (-2) =... \) did you get how i got that ^ ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah I think so. Then for the second row would it be -2*6+(-1)*2+0*(-2) ?

hartnn (hartnn):

correct! :)
