    Study Notes

    Definition of Matrix Multiplication

    • Given an m × n matrix A and an n × p matrix B, the product AB results in an m × p matrix.
    • Each element of the product matrix, denoted as cij, is calculated using the sum of products of corresponding elements from the ith row of A and the jth column of B.
    • Formula for cij:
      cij = ∑ (from k=1 to n) aik * bkj
      This means summing the products for all k from 1 to n.

    Understanding the Process

    • To compute the element located in the ith row and jth column of the product AB:
      • Multiply elements from the ith row of A with the corresponding elements from the jth column of B.
      • Sum the results of these multiplications to get cij.

    General Pattern of Matrix Multiplication

    • The multiplication of matrices follows a pattern based on the dimensions of the matrices involved.
    • The ith row of matrix A is combined with the jth column of matrix B to determine the corresponding entry in the product matrix.

    Example of Finding the Product of Two Matrices

    • Given matrices:
      A =
      [
      -1, 3
      4, -2
      5, 0
      ]
      B =
      [
      -3, 2
      -4, 1
      ]
    • The product AB is valid since matrix A (3 × 2) has a matching dimension with matrix B (2 × 2).
    • Matrix dimensions must align for multiplication to be possible; column count of the first matrix must equal row count of the second matrix.
