Study Notes

Math (101) Biotechnology Midterm Exam - Study Notes

  • Question Types: Three questions on each exam. Questions involve matrix operations, eigenvalue/eigenvector calculations, and systems of equations.
  • Question 1 (Matrix Operations): Find (A - 2I)² + 5A. Matrices (A) are presented in each test.
    • Matrix A values: Vary for each test. Key details of each matrix (e.g., dimensions, entries) are essential for the calculation.
  • Question 2 (Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors): Find the eigenvalue and eigenvector for the matrix provided.
    • Matrices Vary: Use the same Matrix A values from Question 1 in each question set.
  • Question 3 (Systems of Equations): A medicine comes in different dosage forms. Find the combinations to make a target dosage.
    • Dosage Forms: The dosage strength (mg/tablet) varies for each test. The target number of tablets and total dosage also vary for each question
    • All possible solutions: Find all valid combinations of dosages to reach the target amount.
