Example of Matrix Entrywise Addition

Let $\mathbf A = \begin {pmatrix} p & q \\ r & s \end {pmatrix}$ and $\mathbf B = \begin {pmatrix} w & x \\ y & z \end {pmatrix}$ be order $2$ square matrices over the real numbers.


Then the matrix sum of $\mathbf A$ and $\mathbf B$ is given by:

$\mathbf A + \mathbf B = \begin {pmatrix} p + w & q + x \\ r + y & s + z \end {pmatrix}$
