.

Write 2x3-matrix B as it is given to you. Then write 3x2-new matrix , which is transposed matrix B. First row of is the first column of B. Second row of is the second column of B. Third row of is the third column of B. That's all what they want from you. Matrix A is irrelevant in this post.

Solved.

Matrix B

1 -1 x
y 2 -3

Matrix which is the transpose

1 y
-1 2
x -3

This is the result of turning each row into a column.
row1 of B becomes column1 of
row2 of B becomes column2 of

Erase the grid lines when writing the matrices out.
It's unfortunate math notation that matrices don't involve grid lines to separate out each item.
