Matrix Operations and Properties

Jimmy Chang explains how to add, subtract, and multiply matrices. He emphasizes the importance of matrix structure for addition and subtraction, where matrices must have the same dimensions. For multiplication, the number of columns in the first matrix must match the number of rows in the second. Examples are provided to illustrate these concepts.
