10-Ext Matrices
A matrix is a rectangular arrangement of numbers in rows and columns. Each number in the matrix is called an entry.

10-Ext Matrices
Matrices are described by the number of rows and columns in the matrix. Matrix A is called a 3 × 2 (3 by 2) matrix because it has 3 rows and 2 columns.
Matrix B contains the same data, but it is arranged in 2 rows and 3 columns, so it is called a 2 × 3 (2 by 3) matrix.

Example 1: Organizing Data in a Matrix
The table shows the number of yearbooks sold to students at two high schools. Arrange the data in a matrix. Give the dimensions of the matrix.
9th 10th 11th 12th
West Hills 98 108 110 121
College Park 86 95 105 132
MatrixThe matrix has 2 rows and 4 columns, so its dimensions are 2 x 4.

Check It Out! Example 1The table shows the number of members in each section of two marching bands. Use this information to make a 3 x 2 matrix.
Percussion Brass Woodwinds
Northmount High 14 23 16
Western High 19 36 41
To make a matrix with 3 rows and 2 columns, have the rows represent the types of instruments and the columns represent the schools.

To multiply a matrix by a number, multiply each entry in the matrix by the number. This kind of multiplication is called scalar multiplication. The scalar is the number by which the matrix is multiplied.
