Answer

$\left[\begin{array}{lll} 7 & 6 & 5\\ 2 & -1 & 11 \end{array}\right]$

Work Step by Step

$A-D$ exists because A and D have the same order, $2\times 3.$ The product of an $m\times\underline{n}$ matrix and an $\underline{n}\times p$ matrix is an $m\times p$ matrix. $(A-D)$ is a $2\times\underline{3}$ matrix, $C$ is $\underline{3}\times 3.$ $(A-D)C$ exists and is a $2\times 3$ matrix. The element in the ith row and $j$th column of $(A-D)C$ is found by multiplying each element in the $i$th row of $(A-D)$ by the corresponding element in the $j$th column of $C,$ and adding the products. $A-D=\left[\begin{array}{lll} 2+2 & -1-3 & 2-1\\ 5-3 & 3+2 & -1-4 \end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{lll} 4 & -4 & 1\\ 2 & 5 & -5 \end{array}\right]$ $(A-D)C=\left[\begin{array}{lll} 4 & -4 & 1\\ 2 & 5 & -5 \end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{lll} 1 & 2 & 3\\ -1 & 1 & 2\\ -1 & 2 & 1 \end{array}\right]$ $=\left[\begin{array}{lll} 4+4-1 & 8-4+2 & 12-8+1\\ 2-5+5 & 4+5-10 & 6+10-5 \end{array}\right]$ $=\left[\begin{array}{lll} 7 & 6 & 5\\ 2 & -1 & 11 \end{array}\right]$
