Associative Property (regroup)
Commutative Property (change order
Distributive Property of Addition
Distributive Property of Subtractions
(A+B)+C = A +(B+C) A + B = B +A c(A +B) = cA + cB c(A- B) = cA- cB

10. Using Matrices to Organize Data: Use matrices to organize the following data about insurance rates.
This year for 1 car, comprehensive, collision and basic insurance cost $612.15, $ and $ For 2 cars, comprehensive, collision and basic insurance cost $ , $984.16, and $ Next year for 1 car, comprehensive, collision and basic insurance will cost $616.28, $520.39, and $ For 2 cars, comprehensive, collision and basic insurance will cost $ , $987.72, and $

11. Use the matrices to write a matrix that shows the changes from this year to next.

13. Multiplying Matrices
-You can only multiply matrices when the number of columns in the first matrix is equal to the number of rows in the second.
-Multiplication of matrices is not commutative!!
-The dimensions of the product matrix will be the number of rows in the first matrix by the number of columns in the second matrix
3 x 2 matrix times a 2 x 2 matrix results in a 3 x 2 matrix

14. Multiply each row entry by each column entry to yield one entry in the product matrix.
Must be the same
Dimensions of product matrix

15. The determinant of a matrix is the difference in the cross products
Determinants
The determinant of a matrix is the difference in the cross products
det A or lAl

16. Find the determinant of a 2 x 2 matrix

17. Using Diagonals
Another method for evaluating a third order determinant is using diagonals.
STEP 1: You begin by repeating the first two columns on the right side of the determinant.

18. Using Diagonals aei bfg cdh
STEP 2: Draw a diagonal from each element in the top row diagonally downward. Find the product of the numbers on each diagonal.
aei
bfg
cdh

19. Using Diagonals gec hfa idb
STEP 3: Then draw a diagonal from each element in the bottom row diagonally upward. Find the product of the numbers on each .
gec
hfa
idb

20. Using Diagonals
To find the value of the determinant, add the products in the first set of diagonals, and then subtract the products from the second set of diagonals.
The value is:
aei + bfg + cdh – gec – hfa – idb

21. Ex. 2: Evaluate using diagonals.
First, rewrite the first two columns along side the determinant.

22. Ex. 2: Evaluate using diagonals.
Next, find the values using the diagonals. -5 24 4 60
Now add the bottom products and subtract the top products.
– 0 – (-5) – 24 = 45. The value of the determinant is 45.

23. Area of a triangle
Determinants can be used to find the area of a triangle when you know the coordinates of the three vertices. The area of a triangle whose vertices have coordinates (a, b), (c, d), (e, f) can be found by using the formula:
and then finding |A|, since the area cannot be negative.

24. Ex. 3: Find the area of the triangle whose vertices
have coordinates (-4, -1), (3, 2), (4, 6).
How to start: Assign values to a, b, c, d, e, and f and substitute them into the area formula and evaluate.
a = -4, b = -1, c = 3, d = 2, e = 4, f = 6 8
-24 -3 18 -8 -4
Now add the bottom products and subtract the top products.
-8 + (-4) + 18 – 8 – (-24) –(-3) = 25. The value of the determinant is 25. Applied to the area formula ½ (25) = The area of the triangle is 12.5 square units.

25. Finding the inverse of a matrix
(the determinant cannot be zero, if the determinant is zero the matrix has no inverse.

32. Solving systems using Augmented Matrices
You can solve some linear systems by using an augmented matrix. An augmented matrix contains the coefficients and the constants from a system of equations. Each row of the matrix represents an equation.

33. Ex. 1: Write an augmented matrix to represent the system shown.

4x = -20

Use the rref key under the matrix math menu to solve an augmented matrix.

34. Writing and using a linear system
You have $10,000 to invest. You want to invest the money in a stock mutual fund, a bond mutual fund, and a money market fund. The expected annual returns for these funds are 10% for stock, 7% for bond and 5% for money market. You want your investment to obtain an overall annual return of 8%. A financial planner recommends that you invest the same amount in stocks as in bonds and the money market combined. How much should you invest in each fund?
