Matrices are used to simplify equations of many coordinates or terms. Such equations come up in biology when studying the relationship between different species in an ecosystem. They appear in chemistry and physics all the time. And I suspect they are present in economics.
They do not come up in most professions, as most people don't deal with high level mathematics on a daily basis, but if you do deal with high level mathematics, they are unavoidable.

Hi,
Matrices are used for solving a system of linear equations in many applications.
Electrical engineers use them to solve circuit equations, every kind of organization that does scheudling (trucks, airlines, etc. ) can use linear equations to determine the most efficient routes, even the computers in CAT scanners solve many linear equations in reconstituting the images. A special method with matrices (the Simplex method) is used to find the optimum ,oxtires in many different types of things such as aminal feed, vitamins, and just about any kind of thing where you need to mix different things that contain elements of a mixture that you want.
Don't sell matrice short. They're very valuable tools in many different types of analyses.

The ^ sign ability "to the flexibility of" or exponentation. the 1st image you would be able to apply is exponential notation. as an occasion, a million x 10 ^ one hundred is a googol. Numbers like that are continually interior the form of a x 10^b. 'a' is asserted as the mantissa, and 'b' is asserted as the exponent, additionally the "order of value", because of the fact for super numbers, it supplies an suited estimate. For bigger numbers, you would be able to evaluate the "Up Arrow" notation. it somewhat is an extension of the trend: multiplication is repeated including, and an exponent is repeated multiplying. A double arrow is repeated exponenting! 2 ^ ^ 3 = 2 ^ (2 ^ 2) = 2 ^ 4 = sixteen. 2 ^ ^ 4 = 2 ^ 2 ^ (2 ^ 2) = 2 ^ (2 ^ 4) = 2 ^ sixteen = 65536 A triple arrow is repeated double exponenting! 2 ^ ^ ^ 3 = 2 ^^ (2 ^^ 2) = 2 ^ ^ 4 = 65536 2 ^ ^ ^ 4 = 2 ^^ 65536 = 2 ^ 2 ^ ... ^ 2 (repeated 65536 circumstances!) etc. those numbers get massive quickly, that's why you elect the notation!

Engineers use them for simplifying their equations.
I've used them in geodetic surveying for adjusting the
coordinates of the base points on the ground.
GPS satelites use the same method to adjust the
accuracy of their data sending to the end users.
sometimes the number of data you collect are thousands
then the best way to deal with them are matrices to form your
equations.

Tons of places. Database tables, for example, are matricies of information. Purely numerical arrays are also used in computing. Matricies and eigenvalues have a lot of engineering applications too.
