Answer

$\begin{bmatrix} 16 & 10 & -10\\ -6 & 16 & 4 \end{bmatrix}$

Work Step by Step

Since, matrix $A$ and $B$ are both $ 2 \times 3$ matrices and have the same dimensions, we know that their addition, $2A+4B$, is defined. Multiply $2$ to each element of $A$ and multiply $4$ to each element of $B$, then add each corresponding element to obtain: \begin{align*} 2A+4B&=\begin{bmatrix} 2\cdot 0 & 2\cdot 3 & 2(-5)\\ 2\cdot 1 & 2\cdot 2 & 2\cdot 6 \end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix} (4)(4) & (4)(1) & 4\cdot 0\\ 4(-2) & 4\cdot 3 & (4)(-2) \end{bmatrix}\\ &=\begin{bmatrix} 0+16 & 6+4 & -10+0\\ 2-8 & 4+12 & 12-8 \end{bmatrix} \\ &=\begin{bmatrix} 16 & 10 & -10\\ -6 & 16 & 4 \end{bmatrix} \end{align*}
