I'd recommend researching where such math is applied in the industry and at least show them where it's used. I have rarely understood why I should learn something. While having to research it again years later. Matrix multiplications are for example used in game engines or in image processing. One example of rather complex algorithm is potential based interception algorithms for moving objects (Ai for Game Developers - O'Reilly).
