Here are the directions on our final:

Put your answers on the paper provided.  Please work neatly and staple your solutions, in problem order, to these two pages.  You must show your work and justify your answers for credit.  You are free to use your calculators to compute rref, inverses, determinants, and matrix arithmetic—please simply note the use of the calculator.  Other electronic devices, such as cell phones or smart phones, are not allowed. You may not store and use information such as formulas or definitions in your calculator.

Here are the problem by problem contents of our final:
  1. Least squares
  2. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors and the spectral theorem
  3. Diagonalize
  4. Cramer’s Rule
  5. Matrix of linear transformation in AVS.
  6. Gram-Schmidt
  7. Linear transformations
  8. The following are equivalent (9 pts.)
  9. Prove or disprove, 6 points each, choose 3 about: subspaces, kernels, basis, orthogonality
  10. 8 true false with results about: solvability, basis, linear transformations, diagonalizability, orthogonality of matrices, similarity of matrices, and properties of determinants.
  11. 5 give examples or state than none exist.
  12. Short answer/description
  13. Author of our text.
