  1. Matrices and Systems of Equations

  2. Definition of Matrix If m and n are positive integers, an m x n matrix (read “m x n”) is a rectangular array In which each entry of the matrix is a real number. An m x n matrix has m rows and n columns.

  3. Matrix Order Determine the order of each matrix.

  4. Writing an Augmented Matrix Solution Begin by writing the linear system and aligning the variables. (on board)

  12. Row-Echelon Form and Reduced Row-Echelon Form • A matrix in row-echelon form has the following properties. • Any rows consisting entirely of zeros occur at the bottom of the matrix. • For each row that does not consist entirely of zeros, the first nonzero entry is 1 (called a leading 1). • For two successive (nonzero) rows, the leading 1 in the higher row is farther to the left than the leading 1 in the lower row. • A matrix in row-echelon form is in reduced row-echelon form if every column that has a leading 1 has zeros in every position above and below its leading 1.

  13. Example Row-Echelon Form Reduced Row-Echelon Form

  14. Try this… Determine whether each matrix is in row-echelon form. If it is, determine whether the matrix is in reduced row-echelon form.

  15. Gaussian Elimination with Back-Substitution Write the augmented matrix of the system of linear equations. Use elementary row operations to rewrite the augmented matrix in row-echelon form. Write the system of linear equations corresponding to the matrix in row-echelon form and use back-substitution to find the solution.

  16. Example Will be completed on board. Solve the system.

  17. Try this… Solve the system.
