Original question and givens

Over R, A=[[-6, -7], [-4, -5]] and B=[[6, 7], [4, 5]] have the same dimensions. Find A+B as a nested list of rows.

  • G001 — Over R, A=[[-6, -7], [-4, -5]] and B=[[6, 7], [4, 5]] have the same dimensions. Find A+B as a nested list of rows.

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

source roles = [qf-matrix-addition, matrix_addition, reals, []]

After

derived = [[nested_ROW_matrix]]

Conditions: none

MOD25 uses LOCAL hyphens/named domains,legacy matrices underscores/reals;BASE logic acquires no domain/op.Output tuples,matrices,numeric fields and fraction texts follow THIS source,not a universal/1 rule.Retain originals/English/AST/status.

S002 · implies

Before

source roles = [A ORIGINAL, [[-6, -7], [-4, -5]]]

After

derived = [2, 2]

Conditions: none

THIS bank allows1..5 by1..5 matrices,not the R64 2×2 restriction.Type EVERY raw SAFE cell,including unused shape/entry cells.Keep original row order.

After

Matrix sum ORIGINAL entry0,0 = 0

Conditions: none

Use ORIGINAL operands/order for exact arithmetic.Rational operations separately enforce this MOD25 SOURCE pre-reduction envelope.Do not globally cap every derived integer at one million or use floating approximations.

Result

[[0, 0], [0, 0]]

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
