We've learned about matrix addition, matrix subtraction, matrix multiplication. So you might be wondering, is there the equivalent of matrix division? And before we get into that, let me introduce some concepts to you. And then we'll see that there is something that maybe isn't exactly division, but it's analogous to it.

This is a collection of notes for a one-semester course in linear algebra taught at San Jacinto College (Houston, Texas). The notes are suited for a first course in linear algebra taken by students who have completed one year of single-variable calculus. Unlike most traditional linear algebra textbooks, these notes begin with the ideas of vector spaces and linear functions (transformations). Since functions play a central role in calculus, this approach should seem more natural to students. Systems of linear equations and matrix theory are presented afterward as consequences of the preceding material. The result is an economical (only 175 pages) treatment of the main themes of linear algebra along with a few applications of the theory to geometry, economics, and cryptography.
