1. 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. You can also use a matrix to show table data. A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers enclosed in brackets.

2. Matrix A has two rows and three columns. A matrix with m rows and n columns has dimensions m x n, read m by n, and is called an m x n matrix. A has dimensions 2 x 3. Each value in a matrix is called an entry of the matrix.

3. The address of an entry is its location in a matrix, expressed by using the lower case matrix letter with row and column number as subscripts. The score 16.206 is located in row 2 column 1, so a 21 is 16.206.

4. The prices for different sandwiches are presented at right. 6 in9 in Roast beef$3.95$5.95 Turkey$3.75$5.60 Tuna$3.50$5.25 A. Display the data in matrix form. P = 3.95 5.95 3.75 5.60 3.50 5.25 B. What are the dimensions of P? P has three rows and two columns, so it is a 3 x 2 matrix.

5. C. What is entry P 32 ? What does is represent? D. What is the address of the entry 5.95? The entry at P 32, in row 3 column 2, is 5.25. It is the price of a 9 in. tuna sandwich. The entry 5.95 is at P 12. The prices for different sandwiches are presented at right. 6 in9 in Roast beef$3.95$5.95 Turkey$3.75$5.60 Tuna$3.50$5.25

6. Use matrix M to answer the questions below. Whiteboards a. What are the dimensions of M?3 x 4 11 m 14 and m 23 b. What is the entry at m 32 ? c. The entry 0 appears at what two addresses?

7. You can add or subtract two matrices only if they have the same dimensions.

8. Add or subtract, if possible. W + Y Add each corresponding entry. W =, 3 –2 1 0 Y =, 1 4 –2 3 X =, 4 7 2 5 1 –1 Z = 2 –2 3 1 0 4 W + Y = 3 –2 1 0 + 1 4 –2 3 = 3 + 1 –2 + 4 1 + (–2) 0 + 3 4 2 –1 3 =

9. X – Z Subtract each corresponding entry. W =, 3 –2 1 0 Y =, 1 4 –2 3 X =, 4 7 2 5 1 –1 Z = 2 –2 3 1 0 4 Add or subtract, if possible. X – Z = 4 7 2 5 1 –1 2 –2 3 1 0 4 – 2 9 –1 4 1 –5 =

10. X + Y X is a 2 x 3 matrix, and Y is a 2 x 2 matrix. Because X and Y do not have the same dimensions, they cannot be added. W =, 3 –2 1 0 Y =, 1 4 –2 3 X =, 4 7 2 5 1 –1 Z = 2 –2 3 1 0 4 Add or subtract, if possible.

11. Add or subtract if possible. Whiteboards B + D A =, 4 –2 –3 10 2 6 B =, 4 –1 –5 3 2 8 C =, 3 2 0 –9 –5 14 D = 0 1 –3 3 0 10 Add each corresponding entry. B + D = + 4 –1 –5 3 2 8 0 1 –3 3 0 10 4 + 0 –1 + 1 –5 + (–3) 3 + 3 2 + 0 8 + 10 = 4 0 –8 6 2 18

12. B – A Add or subtract if possible. Whiteboards A =, 4 –2 –3 10 2 6 B =, 4 –1 –5 3 2 8 C =, 3 2 0 –9 –5 14 D = 0 1 –3 3 0 10 B is a 2 x 3 matrix, and A is a 3 x 2 matrix. Because B and A do not have the same dimensions, they cannot be subtracted.

13. D – BSubtract corresponding entries. Add or subtract if possible. Whiteboards A =, 4 –2 –3 10 2 6 B =, 4 –1 –5 3 2 8 C =, 3 2 0 –9 –5 14 D = 0 1 –3 3 0 10 0 1 –3 3 0 10 4 –1 –5 3 2 8 – –4 2 2 0 –2 2 = D – B =

14. You can multiply a matrix by a number, called a scalar. To find the product of a scalar and a matrix, or the scalar product, multiply each entry by the scalar.
