let M1, M2 be Matrix of n, REAL ; :: thesis: ( M1 is_less_than M2 & a < 0 implies a * M2 is_less_than a * M1 )

proof
let i, j be Nat; :: thesis: ( [i,j] in Indices (a * M2) implies (a * M2) * i,j < (a * M1) * i,j )
assume A5: [i,j] in Indices (a * M2) ; :: thesis: (a * M2) * i,j < (a * M1) * i,j
then A6: [i,j] in Indices M1 by A2, MATRIXR1:28;
then M1 * i,j < M2 * i,j by A1, Def5;
then a * (M2 * i,j) < a * (M1 * i,j) by A1, XREAL_1:71;
then (a * M2) * i,j < a * (M1 * i,j) by A3, A4, A5, Th4;
hence (a * M2) * i,j < (a * M1) * i,j by A3, A6, Th4; :: thesis: verum

hence a * M2 is_less_than a * M1 by Def5; :: thesis: verum
