	Without significant add-in libraries, probably not...

	"Expanding and factoring equations" -- to me -- implies /symbolic
algebra systems/.

	Python can compute results of equations, but it won't, natively,
reformulate equations.

	Linear algebra tends to turn into matrix manipulation, as I recall...
Again, not a native feature.
