Answer:
[6, 18]
Step-by-step explanation:
the first matrix has the dimensions 1 x 2 (1 row, 2 columns). The send has the dimensions 2 x 2. Because of this it is possible to do matrix multiplication and the result will be a 1 x 2 matrix.
Multiply the column -2, 7 by the row 4, 2:
We get (-2)(4) + (7)(2), which simplfies to 6. This is the first element of the 1 x 2 product.
Multiply the column 5, -1 by the row 4, 2: We get (5)(4) + (-1)(2), or 18.
The fourth answer choice is the correct one: [6, 18]
