Inhaltsangabe

This is a combined version of Anton and Rorres' "Applications of Linear Algebra" and Anton's "Elementary Linear Algebra" into one practical, flexible text. It incorporates 20 applications drawn from business, economics, engineering, physics, computer science, sociology and numerous other disciplines. The applications are self-contained, giving instructors the flexibility to choose those that are best suited to their students and to incorporate them anywhere in the course after the mathematical prerequisites covered in the first section of the text have been met. Also included is an expanded variety of exercise sets, both computational and conceptual, beginning with drill problems and progressing to more theoretical problems. The chapter on numerical methods has been completely rewritten to include a new section on LU-decomposition. Also added is a new section comparing various methods for solving linear systems in terms of the number of operations they require.
