Question
If $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}2&-1\\3&2 \end{bmatrix} $ and $\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}0&4\\-1&7\end{bmatrix} ,$ find $3A^2 - 2B + l$

Answer

Given: $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}2&-1\\3&2 \end{bmatrix}$
Now,
$\text{A}^2=\text{AA}$
$\Rightarrow\text{A}^2=\begin{bmatrix}2&-1\\3&2 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}2&-1\\3&2 \end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\text{A}^2=\begin{bmatrix}4-3&-2-2\\6+6&-3+4 \end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\text{A}^2=\begin{bmatrix}1&-4\\12&1 \end{bmatrix}$
$3\text{A}^2-2\text{B}+\text{I}$
$\Rightarrow3\text{A}^2-2\text{B}+\text{I}=3\begin{bmatrix}1&-4\\12&1 \end{bmatrix}-2\begin{bmatrix}0&4\\-1&7 \end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}1&0\\0&1 \end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow3\text{A}^2-2\text{B}+\text{I}=\begin{bmatrix}3&-12\\36&3 \end{bmatrix}-\begin{bmatrix}0&8\\-2&14 \end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}1&0\\0&1\end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow3\text{A}^2-2\text{B}+\text{I}=\begin{bmatrix}3-0+1&-12-8+0\\36+2+0&3-14+1\end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow3\text{A}^2-2\text{B}+\text{I}=\begin{bmatrix}4&-20\\38&-10 \end{bmatrix}$
