MTH 260 - Linear Algebra4 Credit(s)
This course provides a mathematical foundation of computation, terminology and theory of linear algebra. The course covers systems of linear equations, vectors in a geometric setting, real vector spaces, matrices, operations on matrices, inversion of matrices, determinants, linear transformations, dot product and cross product, and eigenvalues and eigenvectors.
Prerequisite: MTH 232 or MTH 252 with a grade of C- or better within the past five years.
Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will:
- Perform basic operations of matrix algebra and apply them to solve systems of linear equations.
