for two 2

× 2 matrices named X and Y

when X + Y =

3 2
3 –1

and X – Y =

1 –4
7 1

.

Matrix multiplication normally does not follow the commutative law XY = YX.
Consequently, (X + Y) (X – Y) = X

Specify the matrix name, and the number of rows and columns, and then input its elements.

For this problem, we need to input X + Y into Matrix A and X – Y into Matrix B.

The following shows input of the elements of Matrix A.
