Dimensions matching Rows times Columns
4.3 Multiplying Matrices Dimensions matching Rows times Columns
2
The end of one matrix and the begin of the other matrix must match up
When multiplying two matrices (A and B) the dimension of A must end and the dimension of B must start with the same number.
3
The resulting matrix dimension come from multiplying
The answer comes from the beginning of one matrix and the end of the other. Let matrix C dimensions be 3 X 2 and matrix D dimensions be 2 X 5. When multiplying the matrix C times matrix D, the answer is a matrix with a dimension of 3 X 5. answers dimensions 3 X 2 times 2 X 5 must have
4
Order matters One of the big rules in multiplying matrices.
A * B ≠ B * A even if the dimensions match.
5
Rows times Columns Ever element in a row is added to the multiplication of every element in the column. A B = AB
6
Ok, so that is how easy it is.
Yes and No. Not all matrices are 2 X 2. Same way row element times column element, then added to the next row element times column element, till out of elements, then next column
7
Rows times columns Take you time
8
Rows times columns Take you time =
9
Is order really important
Not the same.
