Introduces ordinary differential equations, systems of linear equations, matrices, determinants, vector spaces, linear transformations, and systems of linear differential equations. Prereq., APPM 1360 ...

As algebra students learn, there’s a set procedure for figuring it out: Write down two algebraic equations and solve them together. But linear systems can do more than just count chickens and pigs.

Simultaneous linear equations and functions and their graphs—concepts also typically taught in Algebra 1—are now also taught in 8th grade under the common core.

Course Objective: To learn the concepts and techniques of ordinary differential equations and linear algebra. Topics include qualitative methods, linear and nonlinear ODEs, and first and second order ...
