Answer

$\begin{bmatrix} -2&4&2&8\\ 2&1&4&6 \end{bmatrix}$

Work Step by Step

To find: $\begin{bmatrix} 2&-2\\ 1&0\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}2&1&4&6\\3&-1&3&2\end{bmatrix}$ Let the resultant be matrix M. $\implies M_{1,1} = (2)(2)+(-2)(3) = -2$ $\implies M_{1,2} = (2)(1)+(-2)(-1) = 4$ $\implies M_{1,3} = (2)(4)+(-2)(3) = 2$ $\implies M_{1,4} = (2)(6)+(-2)(2) = 8$ $\implies M_{2,1} = (1)(2)+(0)(3) = 2$ $\implies M_{2,2} = (1)(1)+(0)(-1) = 1$ $\implies M_{2,3} = (1)(4)+(0)(3) = 4$ $\implies M_{2,4} = (1)(6)+(0)(2) = 6$ $\therefore M = \begin{bmatrix} -2&4&2&8\\ 2&1&4&6 \end{bmatrix}$
