OUR GOAL Matrices Special matrices Operations on matrices: Addition Difference Transposition Scalar multiplication Matrix multiplication Inverse of a square matrix Matrices and linear systems of equations Matrices and linear transformations
Definition An mxn matrix is rectangular array of numbers (m x n): size of the matrix A = [aij] // aij is called (i, j)-entry
Matrices - examples An 2x3 matrix // 2 rows, 3 columns Read: two by three matrix (1,3)-entry a[1,3] = 1/2 a13 = 1/2 7 -3 1/2 A = 3 -5 0 3 x 3matrix, a square matrix 3 x 1 matrix column matrix
