  1. Matrices

  2. Matrix - a rectangular array of variables or constants in horizontal rows and vertical columns enclosed in brackets. Element - each value in a matrix; either a number or a constant. Dimension - number of rows by number of columns of a matrix. **A matrix is named by its dimensions.

  3. Examples: Find the dimensions of each matrix. Dimensions: 3x2 Dimensions: 4x1 Dimensions: 2x4

  4. Different types of Matrices • Column Matrix - a matrix with only one column. • Row Matrix - a matrix with only one row. • Square Matrix - a matrix that has the same number of rows and columns.

  5. Jim, Mario and Mike are married to Shana, Kelly and Lisa. Mario is Kelly’s brother and lives in Florida with his wife. Mike is shorter than Lisa’s husband. Mike works at a bank. Shana and her husband live in Kentucky. Kelly and her husband work in a candy store. Who is married to whom? Jim Mario Mike Shana Kelly Lisa X X √ √ X X X √ X

  6. Equal Matrices - two matrices that have the same dimensions and each element of one matrix is equal to the corresponding element of the other matrix. *The definition of equal matrices can be used to find values when elements of the matrices are algebraic expressions.

  7. Examples: Find the values for x and y * Since the matrices are equal, the corresponding elements are equal! * Form two linear equations. * Solve the system using substitution.

  8. * Write as linear equations. * Combine like terms. * Solve using elimination. Now check your answer

  9. 3. Set each element equal and solve!
