Elisabeth · Answer 1

The correct answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the answer, we need to subtract the corresponding areas. In order to find the change, we subtract the first matrix from the second. If we look at the numbers in the top right we see.

9 - 21 = - 12

Since C is the only one with - 12 in the top right corner, it must be the correct matrix.
