Answer

$\left[\begin{array}{rrr} 16 & 10 & -10\\ -6 & 16 & 4 \end{array}\right]$

Work Step by Step

A is a 2 by 3 matrix. 2A is also 2 by 3. B is a 2 by 3 matrix. 4B is also 2 by 3. 2A+4B is defined, and is a 2 by 3 matrix. $2A+4B=2\cdot\left[\begin{array}{lll} 0 & 3 & -5\\ 1 & 2 & 6 \end{array}\right]+4\cdot\left[\begin{array}{lll} 4 & 1 & 0\\ -2 & 3 & -2 \end{array}\right]$ $=\left[\begin{array}{lll} 2\cdot 0 & 2\cdot 3 & 2\cdot(-5)\\ 2\cdot 1 & 2\cdot 2 & 2\cdot 6 \end{array}\right]+\left[\begin{array}{lll} 4\cdot 4 & 4\cdot 1 & 4\cdot 0\\ 4\cdot(-2) & 4\cdot 3 & 4\cdot(-2) \end{array}\right]$ $=\left[\begin{array}{lll} 0+16 & 6+4 & -10+0\\ 2-8 & 4+12 & 12-8 \end{array}\right]$ $=\left[\begin{array}{rrr} 16 & 10 & -10\\ -6 & 16 & 4 \end{array}\right]$
