Correct Option: D
To find the product AB, we need to perform matrix multiplication. Matrix A is a 3x2 matrix, and Matrix B is a 2x2 matrix. The resulting matrix will therefore be a 3x2 matrix.
Here's how to calculate the elements of the resulting matrix:
- Element (1,1): (2 * 3) + (1 * 4) = 6 + 4 = 10
- Element (1,2): (2 * 2) + (1 * 2) = 4 + 2 = 6
- Element (2,1): (2 * 3) + (3 * 4) = 6 + 12 = 18
