Part B 1. Let P be the point (2, 3, 0, -1) and Q the point (6, -2, -3, 1). Find the point on the line Segment connecting P and Q that is ¾ of the way from P to Q. Point m= = (2+6)+ (3+-2)+ (0+-3)+ (-1+1) = 8 + -1 + -3+ 0 =(6, - , - ,0) 2. Consider the vector v = (1, 4, -3). a. Find...

Direct Methods for solving linear Systems Matrices enable us to write linear systems in a compact form that makes it easier to automate the standard elimination method on an electronic computer in order to obtain solutions in a fast and efficient way. 5.1 Echelon Form of a Matrix The main idea be...
