Answer: To find the product of two matrices A and B, we must use the matrix multiplication rules.

Matrix A is a 2x2 matrix with values [2 3; 4 5] and matrix B is a 2x2 matrix with values [1 2; 3 4].

The result of matrix multiplication, AB, will also be a 2x2 matrix.

To find each element in the resulting matrix, we take the dot product of the corresponding row in matrix A and column in matrix B.

The first element in the resulting matrix AB, is found by taking the dot product of the first row in matrix A and the first column in matrix B:

(21) + (33) = 2+9 = 11

The second element in the resulting matrix AB, is found by taking the dot product of the first row in matrix A and the second column in matrix B:

(22) + (34) = 4+12 = 16

The third element in the resulting matrix AB, is found by taking the dot product of the second row in matrix A and the first column in matrix B:

(41) + (53) = 4+15 = 19

The forth element in the resulting matrix AB, is found by taking the dot product of the second row in matrix A and the second column in matrix B:

(4*2)
