ACST604: Mathematical Modelling
This unit covers algebra and calculus. The algebra content discusses linearity and applications to geometry. Algebraic techniques involving matrices and determinants are developed and used to study geometrical problems. Linearity is then developed via the notion of vector spaces and used to study systems of linear equations. The notion of a limit is developed and used to study the differential and integral calculus involving functions of one real variable. This is then extended to functions of two real variables. The notion of a limit is enhanced by the study of sequences and series. Numerical techniques for integration are also discussed.
