As background to this exercise, see Exercise 45. a. If you use Theorem 2.3.4, how many multiplications of scalars are necessary to multiply two 2 x 2 matrices? b. If you use Theorem 2.3.4, how many multiplications are needed to multiply an n x p and a p x m matrix?In 1969, the German mathematician Volker Strassen surprised the mathematical community by showing that two 2 x 2 matrices can be multiplied with only seven multiplications of numbers. Here is his trick: Suppose you \a bn have to find A B for A = First computeand B =hi = (a + d)(p+s) hi = (c + d)p h 3 = a(q - s) /14 = d(r - p) h 5 = (a + b)s hf> = (c - a)(p+q) hi = (b - d){r + s)ThenAB _ h\ +/14 - h 5 +/17 /13+/15 [ /12 + h4 h 1 + /Z3 - h2 + he
