two vectors

3. Determine a given vector as a subspace or independent vector 4. Apply concepts of linear equations and linear inequalities to solve
related problems

applications Synopsis This course provides students with the knowledge of linear equations and inequalities, matrix algebra and vector space. The idea is extended to using Elimination, Substitution, Gauss-Jordan Method and Cramer Rule in solving linear systems. In addition, students are taught to find the inverse of a singular matrix using the adjoint method or elementary row operations. Concepts of vector space in R2 and R3 are also discussed. Kursus ini membekalkan pelajar dengan pengetahuan tentang persamaan dan ketaksamaan linear, aljabar matriks dan ruang vektor. Idea ini dilanjutkan kepada Kaedah Penghapusan, Penggantian, dan Gauss-Jordan serta Hukum Cramer dalam penyelesaian sistem linear. Selain itu, pelajar diajar mencari songsang matriks dengan kaedah adjoin atau operasi baris elementari. Konsep ruang vektor dalam R2 dan R3 juga dibincangkan.
