Answer:

4th option

Explanation:

3
\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\-1\\\end{array}\right] -
\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0\\-1.5\\\end{array}\right] ← multiply the components of the first matrix by 3

=
\left[\begin{array}{ccc}6\\-3\\\end{array}\right] -
\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0\\-1.5\\\end{array}\right] ← subtract corresponding components

=
\left[\begin{array}{ccc}6-0\\-3-(-1.5)\\\end{array}\right]

=
\left[\begin{array}{ccc}6\\-3+1.5\\\end{array}\right]

=
\left[\begin{array}{ccc}6\\-1.5\\\end{array}\right]

Answer:

Choice D

Explanation:

Multiply the scalar into the matrix

3*2

3*-1

The first matrix becomes

6

-3

6 - 0

-3 =1.5

We are subtracting a negative so it is like adding

6 + 0

-3 + 1.5

6

-1.5

Choice D
