MATRICES
EXAMPLE-1
Add the matrices A and B using spreadsheet.

SOLUTION

STEP-1 :-Declare two matrices in your spreadsheet by typing numbers in 3x3 grids.
STEP-2 :-Then select elements of matrix and name it A ( You can also add borders).
STEP-3 :- Repeat for B also.
STEP-4 :- Beside them in a box type D to represent result A+B.
STEP-5 :-Move the cursor in an empty box. Now in formula bar type =A+B.
Then press CRTL+SHIFT+ENTER.
And there is the result for A+B .

EXAMPLE-1

For integers in range (-6,6) plot function f(x)=2x^2+1 using a spreadsheet.

SOLUTION

STEP-1 :-In your spreadsheet make two columns x, f(x).

STEP-2 :-Fill the column x with atleast two values eg: -6, -5.
STEP-3 :-Then you can highlight these two cells and use the fill handle to extend this in the cells below. You Will observ
STEP-4 :-Now movethe cursor pointer to cellbelow f(x). In formula bar type =2*POWER(A2,2)+1. Then press ENTER.
STEP-5 :-You will see the result for x=-6. To extend this for other values you can press CTRL+ENTER or use fill handl
STEP-6 :-Now you need to highlight both of these columns x, f(x) alongwith their values.
STEP-7 :-Now go to Insert => Chart => Select line plot. You will get tge required plot.
