Question

Can someone please help me?

Answer 1

The matrix represents the system:

-3x+5y=15

2x+3y=-10, which is choice c.


We can see it more clearly from the way we multiply matrices, as follows:


`\[ \left[ {\begin{array}{cc} -3 & 5 \\ \ 2 & 3 \\ \end{array} } \right] \] \cdot \[ \left[ {\begin{array}{c} x \\ y \\ \end{array} } \right] \]= \left[ {\begin{array}{c} -3\cdot x+5\cdot y \\ 2\cdot x+3\cdot y \\ \end{array} } \right] \]= \[ \left[ {\begin{array}{c} 15 \\ -10 \\ \end{array} } \right] \]`

Answer: C
