Matrix Operations Matrices can be added or subtracted if they have the same<br />

dimensions. To do this, you add or subtract corresponding elements of the two matrices. A<br />

matrix can also be multiplied by a constant number called a scalar. To do this, multiply<br />

each element of the matrix by the scalar.<br />
