Matrices transform sets of linear equations into a compact form AX = B, where A holds coefficients, X is the variable matrix, and B is the constants matrix. Techniques like Gaussian elimination or inverse matrices help solve for X. For example, if A is a 2×2 matrix and B is a 2×1 matrix, finding X often involves computing A⁻¹B. Matrices are crucial in computer graphics (transformations), engineering (stress-strain systems), and advanced math modeling. Proficiency ensures you can handle large or complex linear systems systematically, bridging theoretical knowledge with powerful computational methods.
