Answer:

option d

Explanation:

AB = C

Step 1: Multiply row 1 of matrix B by column 1, 2 and 3 of matrix A to get first column of C

(2x-2)+(3x5)+(-5x-1) (2x-4)+(3x1)+(-5x-3) (2x2)+(3x5)+(-5x-4)

= (-4+15-5 -8+3+15 4+15+20)

= (16 10 39)

Step 2: Multiply row 2 of matrix B by column 1, 2 and 3 of matrix A to get second column of C

(5x-2)+(-4x5)+(2x-1) (5x-4)+(-4x1)+(2x-3) (5x2)+(-4x5)+(2x-4)

= (-10-20-2 -20-4-6 10-20-8)

= (-32 -30 -18)

Step 3: Multiply row 3 of matrix B by column 1, 2 and 3 of matrix A to get third column of C

(-1x-2)+(-1x5)+(3x-1) (-1x-4)+(-1x1)+(3x-3) (-1x2)+(-1x5)+(3x-4)

= (2-5-3 4-1-9 -2-5-12)

= (-6 -6 -19)

Step 4: Form the whole matrix

(16 10 39)

(-32 -30 -18 )

(-6 -6 -19 )

Therefore, option d is correct.
