planes have to parallel 2. Any two of the planes have to be parallel and the third must meet one of the planes at some point and the other at another point. For example; solve the system of equations below: Using matrix method: In the last row of the above augmented matrix, we have ended up with all zeros on both sides of the equations. This means that two of the planes formed by the equations in the system of equations are parallel, and thus the system of equations is said to have an infinite

Falls have been defined as unintentional descents to the floor, which can be due to a variety of factors such as clinical and environmental factors. Fall rates are calculated as the number of patient falls divided by the number of patient bed days multiplied by 1000. Similaril, injury rates are calculated as the number of injuries due to falls divided by the number of patient bed days multiplied by 1000. Up to 12% of hospitalized patients fall at least once during their hospital stay; falls can lengthen

III. Matrices Definition III.1 An m × n matrix is a set of numbers arranged in a rectangular array having m rows and n columns. It is written A11 A12 · · · A1n A21 A22 · · · A12 A= . . . .. . . . . . . . Am1 Am2 · · · Amn There are two important special cases. A 1 × n matrix (that is, a matrix with 1 row) is called a row vector. An m × 1 matrix (that is, a matrix with 1 column) is called a column vector. Our convention will be that row indices are always written
