Synopsis

Linear Algebra: A First Course with Applications explores the fundamental ideas of linear algebra, including vector spaces, subspaces, basis, span, linear independence, linear transformation, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors, as well as a variety of applications, from inventories to graphics to Google’s PageRank.

Unlike other texts on the subject, this classroom-tested book gives students enough time to absorb the material by focusing on vector spaces early on and using computational sections as numerical interludes. It offers introductions to Maple™, MATLAB®, and TI-83 Plus for calculating matrix inverses, determinants, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors.

Moving from the specific to the general, the author raises questions, provides motivation, and discusses strategy before presenting answers. Discussions of motivation and strategy include content and context to help students learn.

À propos de l'auteur

Larry E. Knop

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Featuring numerous problems, along with a solutions manual for qualifying instructors, this classroom-tested text explores the fundamental ideas of linear algebra as well as a variety of applications. It discusses proofs thoroughly to show how to correctly create and write them; offers the option of using Maple(TM), MATLAB®, and TI-83 Plus to help solve arduous problems and reinforce the learning of standard procedures; and distributes the abstract aspects of the material uniformly to promote steady student learning. Many examples of real-world applications, such as center of gravity and PageRank, make the concepts relevant and meaningful.
