- Matrices are challenging, but they are really important in applied mathematics – they are a critical STEM topic. Engineers and scientists use matrices to solve challenging problems in many, many dimensions. Mathcad’s matrix and graphing tools offer capabilities that can help students’ explore matrices early in their school experience so that they are both prepared to use and aware of the importance of matrices. With currently available technologies matrices can be used, explored, and visualized effectively in Algebra 1 class. Systems of equations in three variables need not be avoided any longer. Matrices can be an efficient and powerful way to solve systems, with increased clarity now that we have tools to graph 3D plots.

- In all electronic computation environments the equality symbol requires special treatment because of the different roles this symbol plays in mathematical communication (definition, evaluation, equality). In a Mathcad worksheet definition (or assignment), numeric evaluation, and symbolic evaluation (CAS) provide users with a great deal of power in a computational document. This brief video compares and introduces Mathcad's numeric evaluation (=) and symbolic evaluation (->) symbols by comparing results from the evaluation or two simple algebraic expressions.
