MATH-1201 Note Jan 17, 2022

1. The document discusses row reducing a matrix to put it into reduced row echelon form. This involves moving from left to right and changing columns to make entries below the leading 1s equal to zeros. 2. An example matrix is row reduced, showing the process. The rank of a matrix is the number of leading 1s in the reduced row echelon form. 3. Solving a system of linear equations by transforming the augmented matrix to reduced row echelon form using elementary row operations is called Gauss-Jordan elimination.
