Answer

I = [1001]\begin{bmatrix}[r] 1 & 0 \ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}

Solving, M2 + 3I :

[3242][3242]+3[1001][3×3+(2)×43×2+(2)×(2)4×3+(2)×44×2+(2)×(2)]+[3003][986+41288+4]+[3003][1244]+[3003][1+32+04+04+3][4241].\Rightarrow \begin{bmatrix}[r] 3 & -2 \ 4 & -2 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}[r] 3 & -2 \ 4 & -2 \end{bmatrix} + 3\begin{bmatrix}[r] 1 & 0 \ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \begin{bmatrix}[r] 3 \times 3 + (-2) \times 4 & 3 \times -2 + (-2) \times (-2) \ 4 \times 3 + (-2) \times 4 & 4 \times -2 + (-2) \times (-2) \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix}[r] 3 & 0 \ 0 & 3 \end{bmatrix} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \begin{bmatrix}[r] 9 - 8 & -6 + 4 \ 12 - 8 & -8 + 4 \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix}[r] 3 & 0 \ 0 & 3 \end{bmatrix} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \begin{bmatrix}[r] 1 & -2 \ 4 & -4 \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix}[r] 3 & 0 \ 0 & 3 \end{bmatrix} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \begin{bmatrix}[r] 1 + 3 & -2 + 0 \ 4 + 0 & -4 + 3 \end{bmatrix} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \begin{bmatrix}[r] 4 & -2 \ 4 & -1 \end{bmatrix}.

Hence, M2 + 3I = [4241].\begin{bmatrix}[r] 4 & -2 \ 4 & -1 \end{bmatrix}.
