Question 7632: Same-Shape Matrix Sum and Both Transpose Routes

Original question and givens

Use complete nonempty integer matrices with 1–5 rows and columns and 1-based external indices. Transposition is not inversion or reversal of element order. Same-shape M=[[-6, -7], [-5, -6]], N=[[0, 1], [-1, 0]]. Give (shape of M, M+N, (M+N)ᵀ, Mᵀ+Nᵀ).

• G001 — Use complete nonempty integer matrices with 1–5 rows and columns and 1-based external indices. Transposition is not inversion or reversal of element order. Same-shape M=[[-6, -7], [-5, -6]], N=[[0, 1], [-1, 0]]. Give (shape of M, M+N, (M+N)ᵀ, Mᵀ+Nᵀ).

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

M=[[-6, -7], [-5, -6]];shape=[2, 2]

external indices start at1;transpose is not inverse

M transpose:source(1,1)=-6

target(1,1)=-6

M transpose:source(1,2)=-7

target(2,1)=-7

M transpose:source(2,1)=-5

target(1,2)=-5

M transpose:source(2,2)=-6

target(2,2)=-6

M shape=[2, 2];N shape=[2, 2]

same shape;entrywise sum permitted

M+N(1,1) := sum(-6, 0)

M+N(1,1) = -6

M+N(1,2) := sum(-7, 1)

M+N(1,2) = -6

M+N(2,1) := sum(-5, -1)

M+N(2,1) = -6

M+N(2,2) := sum(-6, 0)

M+N(2,2) = -6

sum transpose:source(1,1)=-6

target(1,1)=-6

sum transpose:source(1,2)=-6

target(2,1)=-6

sum transpose:source(2,1)=-6

target(1,2)=-6

sum transpose:source(2,2)=-6

target(2,2)=-6

N transpose:source(1,1)=0

target(1,1)=0

N transpose:source(1,2)=1

target(2,1)=1

N transpose:source(2,1)=-1

target(1,2)=-1

N transpose:source(2,2)=0

target(2,2)=0

MT+NT(1,1) := sum(-6, 0)

MT+NT(1,1) = -6

MT+NT(1,2) := sum(-5, -1)

MT+NT(1,2) = -6

MT+NT(2,1) := sum(-7, 1)

MT+NT(2,1) = -6

MT+NT(2,2) := sum(-6, 0)

MT+NT(2,2) = -6

left=[[-6, -6], [-6, -6]];right=[[-6, -6], [-6, -6]]

same value at every transposed coordinate

Result

([2, 2], [[-6, -6], [-6, -6]], [[-6, -6], [-6, -6]], [[-6, -6], [-6, -6]])

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