Part a· 3 steps

Evaluate 14A−2B\frac{1}{4}A - 2B.

  1. Calculate 14A\frac{1}{4}A.

    A=(4−103)A = \begin{pmatrix} 4 & -1 \\ 0 & 3 \end{pmatrix} 14A=(14×414×(−1)14×014×3)=(1−14034)\frac{1}{4}A = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{1}{4} \times 4 & \frac{1}{4} \times (-1) \\ \frac{1}{4} \times 0 & \frac{1}{4} \times 3 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & -\frac{1}{4} \\ 0 & \frac{3}{4} \end{pmatrix}
  2. Calculate $2B$.

    B=(−2110)B = \begin{pmatrix} -2 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 \end{pmatrix} 2B=(2×(−2)2×12×12×0)=(−4220)2B = \begin{pmatrix} 2 \times (-2) & 2 \times 1 \\ 2 \times 1 & 2 \times 0 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} -4 & 2 \\ 2 & 0 \end{pmatrix}
  3. Subtract 2B2B from 14A\frac{1}{4}A.

    14A−2B=(1−14034)−(−4220)\frac{1}{4}A - 2B = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & -\frac{1}{4} \\ 0 & \frac{3}{4} \end{pmatrix} - \begin{pmatrix} -4 & 2 \\ 2 & 0 \end{pmatrix} =(1−(−4)−14−20−234−0)= \begin{pmatrix} 1 - (-4) & -\frac{1}{4} - 2 \\ 0 - 2 & \frac{3}{4} - 0 \end{pmatrix} =(1+4−14−84−234)= \begin{pmatrix} 1 + 4 & -\frac{1}{4} - \frac{8}{4} \\ -2 & \frac{3}{4} \end{pmatrix} =(5−94−234)= \begin{pmatrix} 5 & -\frac{9}{4} \\ -2 & \frac{3}{4} \end{pmatrix}

    The result is (5−94−234)\boxed{\begin{pmatrix} 5 & -\frac{9}{4} \\ -2 & \frac{3}{4} \end{pmatrix}}.

Part b

(10−219)\begin{pmatrix} 10 & -2 \\ 1 & 9 \end{pmatrix}

Evaluate B+3AB + 3A.

  1. Calculate $3A$.

    A=(4−103)A = \begin{pmatrix} 4 & -1 \\ 0 & 3 \end{pmatrix} 3A=(3×43×(−1)3×03×3)=(12−309)3A = \begin{pmatrix} 3 \times 4 & 3 \times (-1) \\ 3 \times 0 & 3 \times 3 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 12 & -3 \\ 0 & 9 \end{pmatrix}
  2. Add BB to 3A3A.

    B+3A=(−2110)+(12−309)B + 3A = \begin{pmatrix} -2 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 \end{pmatrix} + \begin{pmatrix} 12 & -3 \\ 0 & 9 \end{pmatrix} =(−2+121+(−3)1+00+9)= \begin{pmatrix} -2 + 12 & 1 + (-3) \\ 1 + 0 & 0 + 9 \end{pmatrix} =(10−219)= \begin{pmatrix} 10 & -2 \\ 1 & 9 \end{pmatrix}

    The result is (10−219)\boxed{\begin{pmatrix} 10 & -2 \\ 1 & 9 \end{pmatrix}}.
