Answer:

A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}1 & -2 \\ 2 & 0\end{array}\right]

Hint: Matrix multiplication is only possible, when the number of columns of first matrix is equal to the number of rows of second matrix.

Given:

A\left[\begin{array}{lll}1 & 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6\end{array}\right]_{2 \times 3}=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-7 & -8 & -9 \\ 2 & 4 & 6\end{array}\right]_{2 \times 3}

The matrix given on the RHS of the equation is a {2 \times 3} matrix and the matrix given on the LHS of the equation is {2 \times 3} So, matrix A has to be {2 \times 2} matrix.

Now, let

A=\left[\begin{array}{ll}a & c \\ b & d\end{array}\right]

we have, 

\\\\ \Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{ll}a & c \\ b & d\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{lll}1 & 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-7 & -8 & -9 \\ 2 & 4 & 6\end{array}\right] \\\\ \Rightarrow \left[\begin{array}{ccc}a+4 c & 2 a+5 c & 3 a+6 c \\ b+4 d & 2 b+5 d & 3 b+6 d\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-7 & -8 & -9 \\ 2 & 4 & 6\end{array}\right]

Equating the corresponding elements of the two matrices, we have

a+4 c=-7,2 a+5 c=-8,3 a+6 c=-9, b+4 d=2,2 b+5 d=4,3 b+6 d=6

Now,

\\\\ \Rightarrow a+4 c=-7 \quad \ldots (i) \\\\ \Rightarrow a=-7-4 c\\\\ 2 a+5 c=-8 \quad \ldots (ii)

Put the value of a in equation ii

\begin{array}{l} \Rightarrow 2(-7-4 c)+5 c=-8 \\\\ \Rightarrow-14-8 c+5 c=-8 \\\\ \Rightarrow-3 c=6 \\\\ \Rightarrow c=-2 \end{array}

Now, put value of a in a=-7-4c

\\\\ \Rightarrow a=-7-4(-2)=-7+8=1 \\\\ \Rightarrow a=1

Using (iii) in (iv)

\\\\ \Rightarrow 4-8 d+5 d=4\\\\ \Rightarrow-3 d=0\\\\ \Rightarrow d=0

Now use the value of d=0 in b+4d=2                     

\therefore b=2-4(0)=2

Thus, a=1, b=2, c=-2, d=0

Hence, the required matrix A is

\left[\begin{array}{cc}1 & -2 \\ 2 & 0\end{array}\right]
