Numerical Analysis: Systems of Linear Equations

In this computing determinants instructional activity, students explore methods of computing determinants. They complete determinant problems by using the co-factor method, the "big formula" and the use of product of the pivots. This...

In this linear systems worksheet, students use a matrix to represent linear systems. This four page worksheet provides examples, explanations and approximately eight problems to complete.

In this matrices worksheet, students write matrix notation to represent linear systems. This four-page worksheet contains approximately 15 problems.

When it comes to rating educational calculators, this calculator is always near the top of this list. Now it's available as an app. There is a lot of calculator power wrapped up in this app. Not only is this a fully functioning...

Determine the geometric representation to the solution of a system of linear equations. The resource shows how scholars can represent a system of linear equations as a linear transformation. The video discusses using an inverse...

It is all about perspective. A video introduces the idea that the view of a vector all depends upon the perspective of the basis vectors. Knowing how to go from one coordinate system's basis vectors to another system's basis vectors...

Equate the area of a parallelogram with the magnitude. The 11th installment in a 15-video series introduces the concept of the cross product of two vectors. The presentation makes the geometric connection between the cross product, the...

Take a look at vectors as geometric objects and then as an algebraic concept. The second video in a series of 15 introduces the vector using three perspectives: the physics, computer science, and mathematical. The resource shows the...

Does the accuracy of the first guess make a difference down the line? Learners investigate the effects of the iterative process of finding roots, using Newton's Method. By moving the initial guess of a root on a graph, pupils observe the...

Use an iterative process to find an approximation of a square root. Pupils use the interactive to find an approximation to find the positive root of a quadratic function with Newton's method. With the graphs, learners position the...
