******************
The other person's answer, "...d because the sqrt of 121 is 11 and the sqrt of 9 is 3," is PARTIALLY WRONG!

If it's sqrt%28121%2F9%29, then it's matrix%281%2C3%2C+sqrt%28121%29%2Fsqrt%289%29+=+11%2F3%2C+%22%28CHOICE%22%2C+%22c%29%22%29

If it's sqrt%28121%29%2F9, then it's matrix%281%2C3%2C+11%2F9%2C+%22%28no%22%2C+%22match%29%22%29
