Correct Option: A
\(\begin{pmatrix} 3 & -2 \ -7 & 5\end{pmatrix}\) + 2\(\begin{pmatrix} -2 & 4 \ 3 & -1\end{pmatrix}\) = \(\begin{pmatrix} 3 & -2 \ -7 & 5\end{pmatrix}\) + \(\begin{pmatrix} -4 & 8 \ 6 & -2\end{pmatrix}\)
= \(\begin{pmatrix} 3 & -4 \ -7 & 6\end{pmatrix}\) + 2\(\begin{pmatrix} -2 & 8 \ 5 & -2\end{pmatrix}\)
= \(\begin{pmatrix}-1 & 6 \ -1 & 3\end{pmatrix}\)
= \(\begin{pmatrix} 3 & -4 \ -7 & 6\end{pmatrix}\) + 2\(\begin{pmatrix} -2 & 8 \ 5 & -2\end{pmatrix}\)
= \(\begin{pmatrix}-1 & 6 \ -1 & 3\end{pmatrix}\)
