The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the relationship between two matrices A and B, we need to analyze the given options systematically. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Matrix Multiplication**: - Matrix multiplication is generally not commutative, which means that for two matrices A and B, it is not always true that \( AB = BA \). **Hint**: Remember that in matrix multiplication, the order of multiplication matters. 2. **Evaluating the First Option (AB = BA)**: - Since matrix multiplication is not commutative, we can conclude that \( AB \neq BA \) for most matrices. Thus, this option is incorrect. **Hint**: Think of simple matrices like \( A = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{pmatrix} \) and \( B = \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 \end{pmatrix} \) to see that \( AB \) and \( BA \) can yield different results. 3. **Evaluating the Second Option (AB ≠ BA)**: - While it is true that \( AB \neq BA \) for many matrices, there are special cases (like when A or B is the identity matrix or both are zero matrices) where this may not hold. Therefore, we cannot say that this is always true for all matrices. **Hint**: Consider matrices that commute, such as scalar multiples of the identity matrix. 4. **Evaluating the Third Option (AB = 0)**: - The statement \( AB = 0 \) implies that the product of matrices A and B results in the zero matrix. This is not a general condition that holds for all matrices A and B. It can happen in specific cases but is not universally true. **Hint**: Think about the zero matrix and how it can result from specific combinations of matrices, but not as a general rule. 5. **Evaluating the Fourth Option (None of the Above)**: - Since the first three options are not universally true for all matrices A and B, the only correct conclusion is that none of the provided statements are true in general. **Hint**: When faced with multiple statements that do not hold true universally, consider the option that states none of them are correct. ### Final Conclusion: - The correct answer is **D) None of the above**.
