Read each question carefully and show all your work. Use a separate sheet of paper if more space is needed.
1. Given matrices A = [[3, 1], [2, 0]] and B = [[-1, 4], [5, 2]], calculate A + B.
2. Given matrices C = [[7, -2, 3], [1, 0, 4]] and D = [[-3, 5, 1], [2, -1, 6]], calculate C - D.
3. Given matrix E = [[2, -3], [0, 5], [1, 4]], calculate 4E.
4. Given matrices F = [[1, 2], [3, 4]] and G = [[5, 6], [7, 8]], calculate FG.
5. Can you multiply matrix H = [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]] by matrix J = [[7, 8], [9, 0]]? Explain why or why not.
6. Find the determinant of the matrix K = [[5, 2], [3, 4]].
