You can definitely multiply 2x2 matrices with each other. In fact you can multiply a AxB matrix with a BxC matrix, where A, B, and C are natural numbers. That is, the number of columns of the first matrix must equal the number of rows of the second matrix--we call this "inner dimensions must match."

Can the elimnation matrices only be applied to square matrices?
Only square matrices have inverses.
How would you factor 2x squared - 72?
2x2 - 72 would be factored into (2x - 12)(x + 6) or (2x + 12)(x - 6) To double check, multiply each pair: (2x - 12)(x + 6) = 2x2 + 12x - 12x - 72 = 2x2 - 72 (2x + 12)(x - 6) = 2x2 - 12x + 12 x - 72 = 2x2 - 72
What is the singular form of matrices?

How can a system of linear equations be represented as a matrix equations?
Here is a simple way to see it that will help you both understand and remember. Take two equations in two unknowns. You can generalize later. Make a 2x2 matrix using the coefficients only. Now if you multiply this equation by the vector (x,Y) written as a column and placed on the right side of the matrix and you have the 2 equations you started with. Now put the constants, that is to say what each equation is equal to, on the right side of the = sign. If you invert the coefficient matrix on the left, the 2x2 one, and multiply both sides by that inverse, the equation is solved. There is another method known as Cramer's rule that can help you to solve equations using matrices. I suggest you look that one up if you are interested or ask for some more help!
Do you multiply matrices?
I do not. I f*cking hate matrices. I multiply sheep.
Is the set of all 2x2 invertible matrices a subspace of all 2x2 matrices?
I assume since you're asking if 2x2 invertible matrices are a "subspace" that you are considering the set of all 2x2 matrices as a vector space (which it certainly is). In order for the set of 2x2 invertible matrices to be a subspace of the set of all 2x2 matrices, it must be closed under addition and scalar multiplication. A 2x2 matrix is invertible if and only if its determinant is nonzero. When multiplied by a scalar (let's call it c), the determinant of a 2x2 matrix will be multiplied by c^2 since the determinant is linear in each row (two rows -> two factors of c). If the determinant was nonzero to begin with c^2 times the determinant will be nonzero, so an invertible matrix multiplied by a scalar will remain invertible. Therefore the set of all 2x2 invertible matrices is closed under scalar multiplication. However, this set is not closed under addition. Consider the matrices {[1 0], [0 1]} and {[-1 0], [0 -1]}. Both are invertible (in this case, they are both their own inverses). However, their sum is {[0 0], [0 0]}, which is not invertible because its determinant is 0. In conclusion, the set of invertible 2x2 matrices is not a subspace of the set of all 2x2 matrices because it is not closed under addition.
Multiplication of 2x2 matrices is commutative?
No. Multiplication of matrices is, in general, non-commutative, due to the way multiplication is defined.

What is inverse of 2x2 matrix A can you find the inverse of any given matrix?
The inverse of a 2x2 matrix:[a b][c d]is given by__1___[d -b]ad - bc [-c a]ad - bc is the determinant of the matrix; if this is 0 the matrix has no inverse.The inverse of a 2x2 matrix is also a 2x2 matrix.The browser used here is not really suitable to give details of the inverse of a general matrix.Non-singular square matrices have inverses and they can always be found. Singular, or non-square matrices do not have a proper inverses but canonical inverses for these do exist.
Why is 2x2x3x7 the prime factorization of 84?
because when you multiply 2x2 it =4 then you multiply 4x3=12 then you multiply 12x7=wich you will have your answer 84!
2 with a little 2 at the top means what?
it means you multiply 2x2
How do you multiply an improper fraction to a number?
1 1/2X2 =3
What does the little 2 mean?
it means you sqaure the number (multiply it by itself)
What is does an x mean in math?
it depends if you have 2x2=4 then the x means multiply but if you have an equation like 2x2 + 5x+2=0 then the x represents a number that you can figure out.
