We review Set Language and Matrices.

A set is a well-defined collection of distinct objects. We talk about how to describe a set, the concept of an element, a subset, when two sets are equal. We also talk about the universal set, the empty set, the complement set for a set, the set union and intersection operations.

We talk about the Venn diagram to represent sets.

We also go over some more practice with matrices.

We start a new chapter on special classes of functions. Today we study rational functions, which are any function that can be expressed as one polynomial divided by another. We then talk about rational function equations and inequalities.

We study multiplication of a matrix by a scalar and multiplication of two matrices.

A matrix can be multiplied by a real number (usually called a scalar). If k is a scalar, then the scalar multiplication of a matrix A by k, denoted by kA, is obtained by multiplying every element of A by k.

Matrices multiplication is defined as follows:

If A is a matrix of order m x n and B a matrix of order n x p, then the product AB is a matrix of order m x p whose element at the ith row and jth column is the sum of the products of the corresponding elements in the ith row of A and jth column of B.

If the column number of A is not equal to the row number of B, then AB is undefined.

We introduce Identity Matrix of order n, which has 1 on its major diagonal line and 0 anywhere else..
