Elementary Linear Algebra Student Solution Manual

Elementary Linear Algebra, Students Solutions Manual

Elementary Linear Algebra develops and explains in careful detail the computational techniques and fundamental theoretical results central to a first course in linear algebra. This highly acclaimed text focuses on developing the abstract thinking essential for further mathematical study The authors give early, intensive attention to the skills necessary to make students comfortable with mathematical proofs. The text builds a gradual and smooth transition from computational results to general theory of abstract vector spaces. It also provides flexbile coverage of practical applications, exploring a comprehensive range of topics. Ancillary list: * Maple Algorithmic testing- Maple TA- www.maplesoft.com Includes a wide variety of applications, technology tips and exercises, organized in chart format for easy reference More than 310 numbered examples in the text at least one for each new concept or application Exercise sets ordered by increasing difficulty, many with multiple parts for a total of more than 2135 questions Provides an early introduction to eigenvalues/eigenvectors A Student solutions manual, containing fully worked out solutions and instructors manual available

This classic treatment of linear algebra presents the fundamentals in the clearest possible way, examining basic ideas by means of computational examples and geometrical interpretation. It proceeds from familiar concepts to the unfamiliar, from the concrete to the abstract. Readers consistently praise this outstanding text for its expository style and clarity of presentation. The applications version features a wide variety of interesting, contemporary applications. Clear, accessible, step-by-step explanations make the material crystal clear. Established the intricate thread of relationships between systems of equations, matrices, determinants, vectors, linear transformations and eigenvalues.

As the most widely used text on elementary linear algebra, this book, in its 18th year of publication, has been substantially revised and updated. The most significant changes are in the reorganization to allow for earlier coverage of eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Additionally, there are major improvements in exposition, some new text material, changes and additions to the exercises, plus new supplementary software and computer-oriented course materials. As with previous editions, the aim is to present the fundamentals of linear algebra clearly, with basic ideas studied by means of computational examples and geometrical interpretation wherever possible. The proofs are presented so that they will be understood by beginning students with more difficult proofs placed in optional sections. Answers to all problems are given at the end of the text.
