Answer

$\left[\begin{array}{ll} 10 & 5\\ -2 & -30 \end{array}\right]$

Work Step by Step

The product of an $m\times n$ matrix and an $n\times p$ matrix is an $m\times p$ matrix. The element in the ith row and $j$th column of $DB$ is found by multiplying each element in the $i$th row of $D$ by the corresponding element in the $j$th column of $B$ and adding the products. $D$ is a $2\times\underline{3}$ matrix, $D$ is $\underline{3}\times 2.$ $DB$ exists and is a $2\times 2$ matrix. $DB=\left[\begin{array}{ll} -2(0)+3(3)+1(1) & -2(-2)+3(2)+1(5)\\ 3(0)-2(3)+4(1) & 3(-2)-2(2)+4(5) \end{array}\right]$ $=\left[\begin{array}{ll} 10 & 5\\ -2 & -30 \end{array}\right]$
