Find the value of #a,b# and #c#, wherever applicable, in following matrix operations?
(a) #((2,1,a),(-9,b,4),(1,0,5))-((3,5,1),(7,1,c),(3,-1,6))=((-1,-4,7),(-16,-1,-5),(-2,1,-1))#
(b) #((3,1,10),(0,-5,4),(-2,2,-1))xxa=((-9,-3,-30),(0,15,-12),(6,-6,3))#

(b)
1 Answer
(a)
(b)
Explanation:
(a)
This is a subtracting a matrix from another. In doing so, we subtract
from first element from first row of first matrix, which is
Similarly we have for second element of first row i.e.
We should also have this for third element of first row too i.e.
Hence,
(b) Here we have multiplication of a matrix
In such cases each number in matrix is multiplied by
For example for first element in first row we should have
Hence,
You can check for other elements too as each element is multiplied by
