Did you read my tips on how to study and learn Math 1310? If not, here is a link to those important suggestions: Here is a link to the actual assignment, in case you don't have it handy: Note that you need to study Lesson 1 (Systems of Linear Equations), Lesson 2 (Cost & Revenue) and Lesson 3 (Row-Reduction and Linear Systems) from my
Matrices for Management book to prepare for this assignment. PLEASE NOTE: I have totally re-jigged my Matrices for Management book as of September 2014. Two new lessons have been added, and I have changed the order of many of the other
lessons to better fit the syllabus for the distance course. I always appreciate it when students purchase the current edition of my books, as that does subsidize my efforts to offer things like these free tips. If you choose to make do with an older edition of my book, please realize that you are missing some things, but you can probably make do. I leave it up to you to look at the Table of Contents in my free sample of the book above to clarify what lesson number in your old
book pertains to the lessons I mention in my tips.
Don't have my book? You can download a free sample of my book and audio lectures containing Lessons 1, 2 and 3: I think you should find this assignment fairly straightforward if you do thoroughly study and do all the Practise Problems I give you in Lessons 1, 2 and 3.
Make sure you have studied my strategies for solving Word Problems discussed in Lesson 3 of my book and exemplified by my questions 9 and 10 in the Lecture Problems.
You should find Lesson 2, question 5 (included in my free sample above) from my Lecture Problems especially helpful.
You should find Lesson 2, question 1 (included in my free sample above) from my Lecture Problems especially helpful. This is straight from Lesson 3 (Row-Reduction) of my Matrices for Management book. You should find question 11 in my Lecture Problems (at the start of the lesson and taught in my lecture notes) helpful.
Standard questions about identifying and achieving RREF (Lesson 3).
I discuss Gaussian Elimination and illustrate it in question 4 of Lesson 3 in my Lecture Problems.
I discuss Gauss-Jordan Elimination and illustrate it in question 3 of Lesson 3 in my Lecture Problems. Essentially, Lesson 3 is all about how and why we do Gauss-Jordan elimination! |
