Linear Systems and Gaussian Elimination
In this module we will learn what a matrix is and what it represents. We will explore how a system of linear equations can be expressed in a neat package via matrices. Lastly, we will delve into coordinate systems and provide visualizations to help you understand matrices in a more well-rounded way.
Matrix Algebra
In this module we will learn how to solve a linear system of equations with matrix algebra.
Properties of a Linear System
In this module we will explore concepts and properties of linear systems. This includes independence, basis, rank, row space, column space, and much more.
Determinant and Eigens
In this module we will discuss projections and how they work. We will build on a foundation using 2-dimensional projections and explore the concept in higher dimensions over time.
