To find the product of two matrices, we need to do row-by- column multiplication and then add the results. For the product of two matrices to be defined, the number of columns of the first matrix must equal the number of rows of the second matrix. A B = AB m x n n x p m x p equal order of AB
Example of Matrix Multiplication 2 x 3 3 x 3 What is the resulting matrix? Are these the same? 2 x 3 Start by multiplying row 1 by column 1. 1(-2) + 0(1) + 3(-1) = -5
