SOLUTION: Show that AB = BA is not true in general for matrix multiplication, by offering a coun-terexample with matrices A and B of the same size. Give your own matrices. So is the follo

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
No. Your 1st product can be calculated; it is a 1X1 matrix [2*2+4*4]=[18]
But your 2nd product cannot be calculated since the number of rows of A
do not equal the number of columns of B. It is not a counter example.
Try a 2X2 matrix with entries 1,2,3,4
multiplying another 2X2 matrix with entries 4,3,2,1.
Numbers in the products will be the same but the
matrices will not be equal.
That should work
