  1. Sounds about right

  2. In your case I would not recommend using separate textbooks for linear algebra, probability, etc.
    There are good introductory textbooks that mix all of these topics, such as Mathematics for Machine Learning.

  3. Artificial Intelligence: a Modern Approach is indeed a big book but it is slightly outdated by today’s standards. In particular, it is very poor on the ML side, and covers “classical” planning more in depth.
    The best book on modern ML is probably Probabilistic Machine Learning: An Introduction (which also has an amazingly thorough “Foundations” part that could answer your question 2).
