Outcomes

N.VM.C.6

(+) Use matrices to represent and manipulate data.

N.VM.C.10

(+) Understand that the zero and identity matrices play a role in matrix addition and multiplication similar to the role of 0 and 1 in the real numbers. The determinant of a square matrix is nonzero if and only if the matrix has a multiplicative inverse.

A.REI.C.8

(+) Represent a system of linear equations as a single matrix equation in a vector variable.

A.REI.C.9

(+) Find the inverse of a matrix if it exists and use it to solve systems of linear equations (using technology for matrices of dimension 3 × 3 or greater).
