Where the aij’s and bi’s are all real numbers, xi’s
are variables . We will refer to systems of the form
(1) as m×n linear systems.
Definition
Inconsistent : A linear system has no solution.
Consistent : A linear system has at least one solution.
Example
(ⅰ) x1 + x2 = 2
x1 − x2 = 2
(ⅱ) x1 + x2 = 2
x1 + x2 =1
(ⅲ)
x1 + x2 = 2
−x1 − x2 =-2
Definition
Two systems of equations involving the same variables
are said to be equivalent if they have the same solution
set.
Three Operations that can be used on a system
to obtain an equivalent system:
Ⅰ. The order in which any two equations are written may
be interchanged.
Ⅱ. Both sides of an equation may be multiplied by the
same nonzero real number.
Ⅲ. A multiple of one equation may be added to (or
subtracted from) another.
n×n Systems
Definition
A system is said to be in strict triangular form if in the kth
equation the coefficients of the first k-1 variables are all
zero and the coefficient of xk is nonzero (k=1, …,n).
Example The system
3x1 2 x2 x3 1
x2 x3 2
2 x3 4
is in strict triangular form.
Example Solve the system

3x1 x2 3x3 1

Elementary Row Operations:
Ⅰ. Interchange two rows.
Ⅱ. Multiply a row by a nonzero real number.
Ⅲ. Replace a row by its sum with a multiple of another row.

Definition
A matrix is said to be in row echelon form
ⅰ. If the first nonzero entry in each nonzero row is 1.
ⅱ. If row k does not consist entirely of zeros, the
number of leading zero entries in row k+1 is greater
than the number of leading zero entries in row k.
ⅲ. If there are rows whose entries are all zero, they are
below the rows having nonzero entries.

in row echelon form or not.

Definition
The process of using operations Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ to transform a
linear system into one whose augmented matrix is in
row echelon form is called Gaussian elimination.
Definition
A linear system is said to be overdetermined if there
are more equations than unknows.
A system of m linear equations in n unknows is said to
be underdetermined if there are fewer equations than
unknows (m<n).

A system of linear equations is said to be homogeneous
if the constants on the right-hand side are all zero.

equations has a nontrivial solution if n>m.

Definition
Two m×n matrices A and B are said to be equal if aij=bij
for each i and j.
Scalar Multiplication
If A is a matrix and k is a scalar, then kA is the matrix
formed by multiplying each of the entries of A by k.
Definition
If A is an m×n matrix and k is a scalar, then kA is the
m×n matrix whose (i, j) entry is kaij.
Matrix Addition
Two matrices with the same dimensions can be added
by adding their corresponding entries.
Definition
If A=(aij) and B=(bij) are both m×n matrices,then the
sum A+B is the m×n matrix whose (i, j) entry is aij+bij
for each ordered pair (i, j).

Definition
If a1, a2, … , an are vectors in Rm and c1, c2, … , cn are scalars,
then a sum of the form
c1a1+c2a2+‥‥cnan
is said to be a linear combination of the vectors a1, a2, … , an .
Theorem 1.3.1 (Consistency Theorem for Linear Systems)
A linear system AX=b is consistent if and only if b can be
written as a linear combination of the column vectors of
A.
Theorem 1.3.2 Each of the following statements is
valid for any scalars k and l and for any matrices A, B
and C for which the indicated operations are defined.
1. A+B=B+A
2. (A+B)+C=A+(B+C)
3. (AB)C=A(BC)
4. A(B+C)=AB+AC
5. (A+B)+C=AC+BC
6. (kl)A=k(lA)
7. k(AB)=(kA)B=A(kB)

Matrix Inversion
Definition
An n×n matrix A is said to be nonsingular or invertible
if there exists a matrix B such that AB=BA=I.
Then matrix B is said to be a multiplicative inverse of A.
Definition
An n×n matrix is said to be singular if it does not have
a multiplicative inverse.
Theorem 1.3.3 If A and B are nonsingular n×n
matrices, then AB is also nonsingular and (AB)-1=B-1A-1
The Transpose of a Matrix
Definition
The transpose of an m×n matrix A is the n×m matrix B
defined by
bji=aij
for j=1, …, n and i=1, …, m. The transpose of A is
denoted by AT.
Algebra Rules for Transpose:
1. (AT)T=A
2. (kA)T=kAT
3. (A+B)T=AT+BT
4. (AB)T=BTAT
Definition
An n×n matrix A is said to be symmetric if AT=A.
4. Elementary Matrices
If we start with the identity matrix I and then perform
exactly one elementary row operation, the resulting matrix
is called an elementary matrix.
Type I. An elementary matrix of type I is a matrix obtained by
interchanging two rows of I.

In general, suppose that E is an n×n elementary
matrix. E is obtained by either a row operation or a
column operation.
If A is an n×r matrix, premultiplying A by E has the
effect of performing that same row operation on A. If B
is an m×n matrix, postmultiplying B by E is equivalent
to performing that same column operation on B.

Find the elementary matrices P1 , P2,such that B P1 AP2 .
Theorem 1.4.1 If E is an elementary matrix, then E is
nonsingular and E-1 is an elementary matrix of the
same type.
Definition
A matrix B is row equivalent to A if there exists a finite
sequence E1, E2, … , Ek of elementary matrices such that
B=EkEk-1‥‥E1A
Theorem 1.4.2 (Equivalent Conditions for Nonsingularity)
Let A be an n×n matrix. The following are equivalent:
(a) A is nonsingular.
(b) Ax=0 has only the trivial solution 0.
(c) A is row equivalent to I.
Theorem 1.4.3 The system of n linear equations in n
unknowns Ax=b has a unique solution if and only if A
is nonsingular.
A method for finding the inverse of a matrix
If A is nonsingular, then A is row equivalent to I and
hence there exist elementary matrices E1, …, Ek such
that
EkEk-1‥‥E1A=I
multiplying both sides of this
equation on the right by A-1
EkEk-1‥‥E1I=A-1
row operations
Thus

Diagonal and Triangular Matrices
An n×n matrix A is said to be upper triangular if aij=0 for i>j
and lower triangular if aij=0 for i<j.
A is said to be triangular if it is either upper triangular or
lower triangular.
An n×n matrix A is said to be diagonal if aij=0 whenever i≠j .

In general, if A is an m×n matrix and B is an n×r that has
been partitioned into columns (b1, …, br), then the block
multiplication of A times B is given by
AB=(Ab1, Ab2, … , Abr)
a (1, :)
a (2, :)
If we partition A into rows, then A
a (m, :)
Then the product AB can be partitioned into rows as follows:
a(1, :) B
a(2, :) B
AB
a(m, :) B
Block Multiplication
Let A be an m×n matrix and B an n×r matrix.
Case 1 B=(B1 B2), where B1 is an n×t matrix and B2
is an n×(r-t) matrix.
AB= A(b1, … , bt, bt+1, … , br)
= (Ab1, … , Abt, Abt+1, … , Abr)
= (A(b1, … , bt), A(bt+1, … , br))
= (AB1 AB2)

dimensions, the block multiplication can be
carried out in the same manner as ordinary
matrix multiplication.
