Answer

$(-2,4,-3,-1)$

Work Step by Step

We know that $a\begin{bmatrix} 2 & -1\\ 3 & 5 \end{bmatrix}+b\begin{bmatrix} 0 & 4\\ -1 & 1 \end{bmatrix}+c\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1\\ 1 & 1 \end{bmatrix}+d\begin{bmatrix} 3 & -1\\ 2 & 5 \end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix} -10& 16\\ -15 & -14 \end{bmatrix}$. Thus $\begin{bmatrix} 2a+c+3d & -a+4b+c-d\\ 3a-b+c+d & 5a+b+c+5d \end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix} -10 & 16\\ -15 & -14 \end{bmatrix}$ Thus $2a+c+3d=-10\\ -a+4b+c-d=16\\ 3a-b+c+2d=-15\\ 5a+b+c+5d=-14$ Thus $2(2a+c+3d)-(3a-b+c+2d+5a+b+c+5d)=2.(-10)-(-15-14) \rightarrow -4a-d=9\\ 3(2a+c+3d)+(a+4b+c-d)-4(5a+b+c+5d)=3.(-10)+16-4.(-14) \rightarrow 5a+4d=-14\\$ Thus $4(-4a-d)-(5a+4d)= -22 \rightarrow 11a =-22 \rightarrow a=-2\\ 5.(-1)+4d=-14 \rightarrow d=-1 \\ 2(-2)+c+3(-1)=-10 \rightarrow c=-3\\ 5(-2)+b+(-3)+5(-1)=-14 \rightarrow b=4$ Thus the vector is $(-2,4,-3,-1)$.
