Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To perform the indicated row transformation, we need to multiply the first row by the scalar 11ebb63d_1b3d_6212_b851_3bea68d9d768_TB8475_11. This means every entry in the first row will be multiplied by this scalar. The resulting first row will be 11ebb63d_1b3d_6214_b851_ed4c0232ebd5_TB8475_11. Therefore, the best choice is B. To get the new matrix, we need to multiply the first row by the given scalar. This means multiplying each element in the first row by the scalar. In this case, we are not given the actual values in the matrix, but we can see that the only difference between the first row in the answer choices is in the fourth element, which is the only element in the first row that changes when we multiply by the scalar. Since the fourth element in the first row is given as "b851" in the problem and "ed4c0232ebd5" in choice B, that must be the correct answer.
