Answer

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

Work Step by Step

The given matrices are $A=\left[\begin{matrix} 0& 3 &-5\\ 1& 2 &6 \end{matrix}\right]$ $B=\left[\begin{matrix} 4& 1 &0\\ -2& 3 &-2 \end{matrix}\right]$ Multiply matrix $A$ by $2$. $2A=2\left[\begin{matrix} 0& 3 &-5\\ 1& 2 &6 \end{matrix}\right]$ Multiply each element by $2$. $2A=\left[\begin{matrix} 0& 6 &-10\\ 2& 4 &12 \end{matrix}\right]$ Multiply matrix $B$ by $4$. $4B=4\left[\begin{matrix} 4& 1 &0\\ -2& 3 &-2 \end{matrix}\right]$ Multiply each element by $4$. $4B=\left[\begin{matrix} 16& 4 &0\\ -8& 12 &-8 \end{matrix}\right]$ Add the corresponding elements of $2A$ and $4B$. $\Rightarrow 2A+4B=\left[\begin{matrix} 0+16& 6+4 &-10+0\\ 2+(-8)& 4+12 &12+(-8) \end{matrix}\right]$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow 2A+4B=\left[\begin{matrix} 16& 10 &-10\\ 2-8&16 &12-8 \end{matrix}\right]$ $\Rightarrow 2A+4B=\left[\begin{matrix} 16& 10 &-10\\ -6&16 &4 \end{matrix}\right]$
