In this module we introduce two fundamental objects of study: linear systems and the matrices that model them. We ask two fundamental questions about linear systems, specifically, does a solution exist and if there is a solution, is it unique. To answer these questions, a fundamental invariant needs to be found. We will use the Row Reduction Algorithm Algorithm to see the number of pivot positions in a matrix. These foundational concepts of matrices and row reduction will be revisited over and over again throughout the course so pay attention to new vocabulary, the technical skills presented, and the theory of why these algorithms are performed.

In this section we temporarily leave our discussion of linear systems to discuss vectors. These nx1 matrices are used in many contexts in physics, computer science and data science. We show in this section that answering questions about linear combinations turns out to be equivalent to solving a system of linear equations, underlying the deep connections of linear algebra. We then introduce the notion of a matrix as a function on vectors. Questions now about properties of the matrix as a function also turn out to be answered by solving a linear system. These connections between matrices as functions, vectors, and linear systems are sometimes why linear algebra is called the "theory of everything".

In this module, we study sets of vectors and functions on them. Understanding vectors and how to manipulate them via functions is quite useful in many areas, in particular, physics, computer science, math, and data science. The concept of linear dependence and linear independence is introduced along with the concept of a linear transformation. We will see when a linear transformation T can be represented by a matrix, how to find the matrix, and start to analyze the matrix to extract information about T. Pay careful attention to the new definitions in this section as they will be foundational to future modules!

In this cumulative assessment, we will ask about the definitions, theorems, and examples shown so far. This is an opportunity to assess your knowledge of the content. The foundational material in this course about linear systems, matrices, and vectors, is key to understanding the more advanced theory and applications of linear algebra to follow. Do the best you can on the assessment and review any questions that are incorrect and learn from them. Good luck!

Häufig gestellte Fragen
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
If you subscribed, you get a 7-day free trial during which you can cancel at no penalty. After that, we don’t give refunds, but you can cancel your subscription at any time. See our full refund policy.
