1. 3.6 – Multiply Matrices The product of two matrices A and B is defined provided the number of columns in A is equal to the number of rows in B. If A is an m x n matrix and B is an n x p matrix, then the product AB is an m x p matrix.

2. 3.6 – Multiply Matrices Example 1: State whether the product of AB is defined. If so, give the dimensions of AB. a.A: 4x3, B: 3x2b. A: 3x4, B: 3x2 c. A: 3x5, B:5x2d. A: 3x4, B: 3x2
