Holt Algebra 2 4-1,4-2 Matrices and Data The table shows the top scores for girls in barrel racing at the 2004 National High School Rodeo finals. The data can be presented in a table or a spreadsheet as rows and columns of numbers.

Holt Algebra 2 4-1,4-2 Matrices and Data You can also use a matrix to show table data. A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers enclosed in brackets. Matrix A has two rows and three columns. A matrix with m rows and n columns has dimensions m  n, read “m by n,” and is called an m  n matrix. Matrix A has dimensions 2  3. Each value in a matrix is called an element of the matrix.

Holt Algebra 2 4-1,4-2 Matrices and Data We name an element by its location in a matrix, where the number of the Row comes first, and then the number of the Column. This can also be expressed by using the lower case matrix letter with row and column number as subscripts. The score is located in row 2 column 1, so the name of this element is a 2,1 (or Row 2, Column 1), and it’s value is

Holt Algebra 2 4-1,4-2 Matrices and Data Example 3: Point Matrices (x,y) = xyxy Points in the coordinate plane can also be represented by a matrix. This is called a Point Matrix. Row 1 is always representing the x-coordinate, and Row 2 is always representing the y- coordinate. So any point matrix will only ever have 2 rows, since coordinates only have two values.
