A matrix is defined by n x m. What do n & m represent?
n = rows m = columns
100

The size or dimension of a matrix is the number of rows and the number of columns, written in that order, and in the format m × n, read "m by n." If n = m, which means that the number of rows equals the number of columns, then the matrix is called a

Square Matrix

Represent these simultaneous equations in matrix form:

4x - 3z = 4

3x - z = -5

[4   -3]   [x]   =  [4]

[3    -1]   [z]  =   [-5]

Matrix A has the dimensions 4 x 5 Matrix B has the dimensions 5 x 1. Can matrix AB be multiplied? Explain why.
Yes they can as the columns in Matrix A match the rows in Matrix B. The final dimensions of AB would be 4 x 1.
