-
We need the number of matrices whose entries are only or .
-
A matrix has entries total. Each entry can be either or .
-
The sum of all entries of such a matrix is simply the number of 's in the matrix.
-
We want this sum to be a prime number. Since the number of 's can range from to , the possible prime sums are
-
For a fixed number of ones, the number of such matrices is the number of ways to choose which of the positions contain :
-
Hence the required number is
-
Compute each term:
-
Add them:
-
Therefore, the number of such matrices is
