Line 5:

where <math> \mathbf{x}_{k} </math> and <math> \mathbf{y}_{k} </math> are known vectors, <math> \, \propto </math> denotes equality up to an unknown scalar multiplication, and <math> \mathbf{A} </math> is a matrix (or linear transformation) which contains the unknowns to be solved.

This type of relation appears frequently in [[projective geometry]]. Practical examples areinclude the relation between 3D points in a scene and their projection onto the image plane of a [[Pinhole camera model|pinhole camera]], and [[Homography|homographies]].
