5. If A and B are two matrices of the same order, that is, they have the same number of rows and
columns, the sum of A and B is the matrix obtained by adding corresponding elements of A
and B. (10 examples)
6. If A is a matrix of order m p and B is a matrix of order p n, then AB is a matrix of order m
n. (10 examples)
