$\left[\begin{array}{ccc} {1}&{14}&{-14}\\ {2}&{22}&{-18}\\ {3}&{0}&{28}\end{array}\right]$

Work Step by Step

C is a 3 by 2 matrix. A is a 2 by 3 matrix. CA is defined and is a 3 by 3 matrix, the entry $[CA]_{ij}$ = (row i of C)$\times$(column j of A) $CA=\left[\begin{array}{ll} 4 & 1\\ 6 & 2\\ -2 & 3 \end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{lll} 0 & 3 & -5\\ 1 & 2 & 6 \end{array}\right]$ $=\left[\begin{array}{ccc} {4(0)+1(1)}&{4(3)+1(2)}&{4(-5)+1(6)}\\ {6(0)+2(1)}&{6(3)+2(2)}&{6(-5)+2(6)}\\ {-2(0)+3(1)}&{-2(3)+3(2)}&{-2(-5)+3(6)}\end{array}\right]$ $=\left[\begin{array}{ccc} {1}&{14}&{-14}\\ {2}&{22}&{-18}\\ {3}&{0}&{28}\end{array}\right]$
