As we learnt

 

Addition of Matrices -

 

Matrices of the same size can be added such that their corresponding elements get added.

- wherein

 

 Subtract both matrices

3Y=\begin{bmatrix} 3 &3 \\ 6 & 9 \end{bmatrix}\Rightarrow Y= \begin{bmatrix} 1 &1 \\ 2 & 3 \end{bmatrix}

 


Option 1)

\begin{bmatrix} 3 & 3\\ 6 & 9 \end{bmatrix}

Option 2)

\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1\\ 2 & 3 \end{bmatrix}

Option 3)

\begin{bmatrix} 1& 1\\ 3 & 2 \end{bmatrix}

Option 4)

\begin{bmatrix} 3 & 3\\ 9 & 6 \end{bmatrix}
