Answer

$\begin{bmatrix} 14&7&-2\\ 20&12&-4\\ -14&7&-6 \end{bmatrix}$

Work Step by Step

$\begin{bmatrix} 4&1\\ 6&2\\ -2&3 \end{bmatrix}\times\begin{bmatrix} 4&1&0\\ -2&3&-2 \end{bmatrix}:$ Let the resultant be matrix M. $\implies M_{1,1} = (4)(4)+(1)(-2) = 14$ $\implies M_{1,2} = (4)(1)+(1)(3) = 7$ $\implies M_{1,3} = (4)(0)+(1)(-2) = -2$ $\implies M_{2,1} = (6)(4)+(2)(-2) = 20$ $\implies M_{2,2} = (6)(1)+(2)(3) = 12$ $\implies M_{2,3} = (6)(0)+(2)(-2) = -4$ $\implies M_{3,1} = (-2)(4)+(3)(-2) = -14$ $\implies M_{3,2} = (-2)(1)+(3)(3) = 7$ $\implies M_{3,3} = (-2)(0)+(3)(-2) = -6$ $\therefore M = \begin{bmatrix} 14&7&-2\\ 20&12&-4\\ -14&7&-6 \end{bmatrix}$
