2. The number of columns is same as that of the given matrix.

3. The order is same as that of the given matrix.

4. The number of elements is same as that of the given matrix.

If $\begin{bmatrix} x + y \ x - y \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 8 \ 4 \end{bmatrix}$, then the value of xy is:

1. 4

2. 8

3. 10

4. 12

If $\begin{bmatrix} x + 3 & 4 \ y - 4 & x + y \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 5 & 4 \ 3 & 9 \end{bmatrix}$, then the values of x and y respectively are:

1. 2, 7

2. 7, 2

3. 3, 5

4. 2, -7

$\begin{bmatrix} 2 & 4 & 1 & 4 & 2 \ -1 & -2 & 3 & 5 & 1 \ 3 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 6 \end{bmatrix}$ is a matrix of the order:
