Linear Algebra: Theory and Applications / Ward Cheney and David R. Kincaid,

By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextLanguage: English Publication details: Sudbury, MA : Jones & Bartlett Learning, 2012.Edition: 2nd edDescription: xxiii, 624 p. ; 25cmISBN:
  • 9781449613525
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 23 512.5 CHE
Contents:
Chapter 1 Systems of Linear Equations Chapter 2 Vector Spaces and Transformations Chapter 3 Matrix Operations Chapter 4 Determinants Chapter 5 Vector Spaces Chapter 6 Eigensystems Chapter 7 Inner Product Vector Spaces Chapter 8 Additional Topics
Summary: Linear Algebra: Theory and Applications, Second Edition, a multi-faceted introductory textbook, which was motivated by their desire for a single text that meets the various requirements for differing courses within linear algebra. For theoretically-oriented students, the text guides them as they devise proofs and deal with abstractions by focusing on a comprehensive blend between theory and applications. For application-oriented science and engineering students, it contains numerous exercises that help them learn and understand not only vector spaces, matrices, and linear transformations, but also how software tools are used in applied linear algebra. Using a flexible design, it is an ideal textbook for instructors who wish to make their own choice regarding what material to emphasize, and to accentuate those choices with homework assignments from a large variety of exercises, both in the text and online.
