Logistics: Math 2270-3 meets MTWF 10:45 - 11:35 a.m., in LCB 215. There are also optional problem sessions on Thursdays from 10:45-12:05, in LCB 225, which is just down the hall. I hold standard office hours after MW classes, 11:45-12:30, and before the TF classes, 9:45-10:15, in LCB 204. (These are changed from the original syllabus.) If you need to see me outside of these times, we can set up an appointment. (You're free to drop by my office whenever you want, but I'll chase you away if I'm busy.) My office phone number is 801-581-7318 and my email address is korevaar "at" math.utah.edu.

Prerequisites: For Math 2270 you need to have succeeded at first-year Calculus, Mathematics 1210-1220 ( or 1250-1260 or 1270-1280). Although not a formal prerequisite, you will also benefit from the multivariable calculus in either 1260, 1280, or 2210, since ideas from that material will tie into what we cover in Math 2270.

Text: Linear Algebra with Applications, fourth edition, by Otto Bretscher. ISBN=978-13-600926-9. You may also buy the solutions manual, which has complete solutions for odd-numbered problems.
