1) True or false: In order to add matrices, the order must be the same. 2) True or false: In order to multiply matrices, the order must be the same.

Step 1
In order to add matrices, they must have the same dimensions, which means they must have the same number of rows and columns. If the order is different, the matrices cannot be added. Show more…

True or False? Determine whether the statement is true or false. Justify your answer. Two matrices can be added only when they have the same dimension.

Indicate whether each statement is True or False. Explain your answers. Some matrices that do not have the same dimensions can be added.

Operations on Matrices
For every square matrix A, if A has a zero entry, then A is not invertible. If A is a matrix such that Ax = 0 has nontrivial (nonzero) solutions, then det(A) = 0. For all matrices A and B that are invertible, we have det(AB) = det(A)det(B). For all square matrices of any order, we have det(2A) = 2det(A).
