Answer

$\begin{bmatrix} -22&29&8&-1\\ -10&17&6&-1 \end{bmatrix}$

Work Step by Step

To find: $\begin{bmatrix}4&1\\2&1\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}-6&6&1&0\\2&5&4&-1\end{bmatrix}$ Let the resultant matrix be matrix M. $\implies M_{1,1} = (4)(-6)+(1)(2)=-22$ $\implies M_{1,2} = (4)(6)+(1)(5) = 29$ $\implies M_{1,3} = (4)(1)+(1)(4) = 8$ $\implies M_{1,4} = (4)(0)+(1)(-1) = -1$ $\implies M_{2,1} = (2)(-6)+(1)(2) = -10$ $\implies M_{2,2} = (2)(6)+(1)(5) = 17$ $\implies M_{2,3} = (2)(1)+(1)(4) = 6$ $\implies M_{2,4} = (2)(0)+(1)(-1) = -1$ $\therefore M = \begin{bmatrix} -22&29&8&-1\\ -10&17&6&-1 \end{bmatrix}$
