SCALAR MULTIPLICATION
Matrix addition is related to a special multiplication involving matrices called scalar
multiplication. Consider this repeated addition:
24
87 +
24
87 +
24
87 =
Notice that in the final result, every element of the original matrix has been multiplied by 3.
With real numbers, we use multiplication as a shorthand for repeated addition; for
example, the sum 7 + 7 + 7 can be written as 3 x 7. Similarly, we can rewrite the above
sum as:
24
873
The constant 3 is called a scalar. Scalar Multiplication is the product of a scalar k and a
matrix A is the matrix kA in which each element is k times the corresponding element in A.

$12.05. How much money is needed to rent a combination of one game and one
movie?
4) The total attendance at a school play was 1, 250. The cost of tickets was $6 for
students and $7.50 for adults. The school drama club had a revenue total of
$8, 362.50. How many of each ticket was sold for the play?

USING ROW-ECHELON FORM TO SOLVE MATRICES
A matrix in Row-Echelon form when:
All rows consisting entirely of zero in the bottom matrix.
For each row that does not consist entirely of zeros, the first non-zero entry is
1.(leading 1)
For two successive (nonzero) rows the leading 1 in the higher row is further to the left
than the leading 1 in the lower row.
Determine if the following matrices are in row-echelon form:

In order to get a matrix in row-echelon form you need to apply row operations.
1) Interchange any two rows. ex. R1 R2
2) Replace a row by a nonzero multiple of that row. ex. 2R1
3) Replace a row by the sum of that row and a constant nonzero multiple of
another row. ex. –2R1 + R3
Use row operations to put the following matrix in row-echelon form:

NUMBER OF SOLUTIONS
The number of Solutions of a Linear System:
For a system of linear equations, exactly one of the following is true:
1) There is exactly one solution.
2) There are infinitely many solutions.
3) There is no solution.
A system of linear equations is called consistent if it has at least one solution. A consistent
system with exactly one solution is independent. A consistent system with infinitely many
solutions is dependent. A system of linear equations is called inconsistent if it has no
solutions.
Directions: For the following matrices determine whether they are consistent or
inconsistent. If it is consistent determine if it is independent or dependent.

MATRIX MULTIPLICATION Row By Column Multiplication:
In linear-combination applications, it is useful to store data in matrices.
Consider a movie theater that charges $6 for adults over 17, $4 for students 13 – 17, and
$2.50 for children 12 or under. How much does it cost a family with 2 adults, 1 student, and
3 children to enter the theater?
The answer is $62 + $41 + $2.53 = $23.50. This is the same arithmetic needed to
calculate the product of these matrices:

Multiplying Two Matrices
In general, the product AB or AB of two matrices A and B is found by multiplying the rows
of matrix A by the columns of matrix B.
**Matrices can only be multiplied when the number of columns for the left matrix equals
the number of rows for the right matrix.
These matrices can be multiplied: These matrices cannot be

Definition of Identity Matrix:
The n x n matrix that consists of 1’s on its main diagonal and 0’s elsewhere is called the
identity matrix of order n and is denoted by
10000
0...100
0...010
0...001

Definition of the Inverse of a Square Matrix:
Let A be an n x n matrix and let In be the n x n identity matrix. If there exists a matrix A-1
such that
AA-1 = In = A-1A
then A-1 is called the inverse of A.

SOLVING A 2 X 2 USING THE INVERSE
We can use inverses to solve a system of linear equations.
If A is an invertible matrix, the system of linear equations represented by AX = B has a
unique solution
X = A 1 B

DETERMINANTS
Determinant:
Every square matrix can be associated with a real number called its determinant. A
determinant can be positive, negative or zero. A zero determinant tells us that the lines
have the same slope and the inverse does not exist. If the determinant equals zero, the
system of linear equations has either no solution or infinitely many solutions.
A determinant can be denoted as either det(A) or |A|.
If 2 x 2 matrix A =
dc
ba , the det(A) = ad – bc.

CRYPTOGRAPHY
A cryptogram is a message written according to a secret code. Matrix multiplication can
be used to encode and decode messages. To begin, you need to assign a number to
each letter in the alphabet (with 0 assigned to a blank space).
To encode a message, choose an n x n invertible matrix A and multiply the un-coded row
matrices by A (on the right) to obtain coded row matrices.
Use the following matrix to encode the message MEET ME MONDAY.
A =
411
311
221
To decode the message, we simply multiply the coded row matrices by A 1 (on the right).
