Cheers

enter image description here

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}

\begin{document}
\begin{equation}
\begin{bmatrix}
N & B_i \\
B_i^T & 0
\end{bmatrix}
\begin{bmatrix}
x_i\\
k
\end{bmatrix}
=\begin{bmatrix}
n\\
0
\end{bmatrix}
\text{ with } n = A^TPl
\end{equation}
\end{document}

If using array instead of bmatrix is possible, you can use arydshln package:

enter image description here

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{arydshln}


\begin{document}

\begin{equation}
\left[
    \begin{array}{c;{2pt/2pt}c}
        N & B_i \\ \hdashline[2pt/2pt]
        B_i^T & 0 
    \end{array}
\right]
\left[
    \begin{array}{c}
        x_i \\ \hdashline[2pt/2pt]
        k
    \end{array}
\right]
=\left[
    \begin{array}{c}
        n \\ \hdashline[2pt/2pt]
        0
    \end{array}
\right]
\text{ with } n = A^TPl
\end{equation}

\end{document}

you can of course, modify options to achieve the look that you desire.

    How do you move the dashed line from the superscript, T? If you do move that dashed line, how do you then align all the horizontal dashed lines? – Joe Sep 27 '15 at 17:00
  • In my latex version I also have to load the "array" package. – jack Jun 09 '20 at 06:47
