The equation shown is a matrix equation of the form:

\[
\begin{bmatrix}
1 & -4 \\
5 & -19
\end{bmatrix}
\mathbf{X}
=
\begin{bmatrix}
3 & 3 \\
-3 & -6
\end{bmatrix}
\]

Where \( \mathbf{X} \) is an unknown \(2 \times 2\) matrix. We need to solve for \( \mathbf{X} \).

Let's label the unknown matrix \( \mathbf{X} \) as:

\[
\mathbf{X} =
\begin{bmatrix}
x_{11} & x_{12} \\
x_{21} & x_{22}
\end{bmatrix}
\]

To solve this matrix equation, we will use the following steps:

### Step 1: Multiply the given matrix on the left side with \( \mathbf{X} \).

This is equivalent to matrix multiplication of:

\[
\begin{bmatrix}
1 & -4 \\
5 & -19
\end{bmatrix}
\begin{bmatrix}
x_{11} & x_{12} \\
x_{21} & x_{22}
\end{bmatrix}
=
\begin{bmatrix}
1 \cdot x_{11} + (-4) \cdot x_{21} & 1 \cdot x_{12} + (-4) \cdot x_{22} \\
5 \cdot x_{11} + (-19) \cdot x_{21} & 5 \cdot x_{12} + (-19) \cdot x_{22}
\end{bmatrix}
\]

Simplifying, we get:

\[
\begin{bmatrix}
x_{11} - 4x_{21} & x_{12} - 4x_{22} \\
5x_{11} - 19x_{21} & 5x_{12} - 19x_{22}
\end{bmatrix}
\]

### Step 2: Set this equal to the right-hand matrix:

\[
\begin{bmatrix}
x_{11} - 4x_{21} & x_{12} - 4x_{22} \\
5x_{11} - 19x_{21} & 5x_{12} - 19x_{22}
\end{bmatrix}
=
\begin{bmatrix}
3 & 3 \\
-3 & -6
\end{bmatrix}
\]

### Step 3: Form two systems of equations

From the matrix equality, we obtain four equations:

1. \( x_{11} - 4x_{21} = 3 \)
2. \( x_{12} - 4x_{22} = 3 \)
3. \( 5x_{11} - 19x_{21} = -3 \)
4. \( 5x_{12} - 19x_{22} = -6 \)

### Step 4: Solve for \( x_{11}, x_{12}, x_{21}, x_{22} \)

Now we have a system of equations that can be solved using substitution or elimination.
