  1. 3.5 – Perform Basic Matrix Operations A matrix is a rectangular arrangement of numbers in rows and columns. The dimensions of a matrix with m rows and n columns are m x n (read “m by n”). The numbers in a matrix are its elements. Two matrices are equal if their dimensions are the same and the elements in corresponding positions are equal.

  2. 3.5 – Perform Basic Matrix Operations

  3. 3.5 – Perform Basic Matrix Operations Example 1: Perform the indicated operation, if possible.

  4. 3.5 – Perform Basic Matrix Operations In matrix algebra, a real number is often called a scalar. To multiply by a scalar, you multiply each element in the matrix by the scalar. The process is called scalar multiplication.

  5. 3.5 – Perform Basic Matrix Operations Example 2: Perform the indicated operation, if possible.

  6. 3.5 – Perform Basic Matrix Operations Example 3: Perform the indicated operation, if possible.

  7. 3.5 – Perform Basic Matrix Operations Many of the properties you have used with real numbers can be applied to matrices as well.

  8. 3.5 – Perform Basic Matrix Operations Example 4: A local bakery keeps track of their sales as shown below. Last month: Store 1: 650 Rolls, 220 Cakes, 32 Pies; Store 2: 540 Rolls, 200 Cakes, 30 Pies This month: Store 1: 840 Rolls, 250 Cakes, 50 Pies; Store 2: 800 Rolls, 250 Cakes, 42 Pies Organize the data using matrices. Then write and interpret a matrix giving the number of total bakery items sold per store.

  9. 3.5 – Perform Basic Matrix Operations Example 5: Solve the matrix equation for x and y.

  10. 3.5 – Perform Basic Matrix Operations Example 6: Solve the matrix equation for x and y.
