**Directions:** Show all work in a neat and organized manner and use equal signs appropriately. Clearly indicate your answers.
1. **Given the following matrices:**
\( B = \begin{bmatrix} x & 0 & -6 \\ 4 & -3 & 0 \end{bmatrix} \)
\( C = \begin{bmatrix} 2 & 3 \\ 7 & -5 \\ 1 & y \end{bmatrix} \)
\( D = \begin{bmatrix} 8x & 2 & 1 \\ 0 & -3 & 5y \end{bmatrix} \)
**Compute each of the following, if possible. If not possible, explain why not.**
a. \( B + C \)
b. \( C^T + D \)
c. \( 2(B - 3D) \)
---
### Explanation:
- **\( B + C \):** Check if matrix addition is possible by comparing the dimensions of \( B \) and \( C \).
- **\( C^T + D \):** Transpose the matrix \( C \) and determine if the addition with \( D \) is possible by ensuring the dimensions match.
- **\( 2(B - 3D) \):** Multiply matrix \( D \) by 3, subtract from \( B \), and then double the resulting matrix.
