Linear Algebra with Applications, Global Edition
9th Edition

Steve Leon



This thorough and accessible text, from one of the leading figures in the use of technology in linear algebra, gives students a challenging and broad understanding of the subject. The author infuses key concepts with their modern practical applications to offer students examples of how mathematics is used in the real world. Each chapter contains integrated worked examples and chapter tests. The book stresses the important roles geometry and visualization play in understanding linear algebra.

• Extensive applications of linear algebra concepts to a variety of real world situations. These applications introduce new material and show relevance of the material covered. Students learn how theories and concepts of linear algebra can help solve modern day problems.
• Interesting and current examples include the application of linear transformations to an airplane, eigenvectors determining the orientation of a space shuttle, and how Google Inc. makes use of linear algebra to rank and order search results.
• Abundant computer exercises, more extensive than any other linear algebra book on the market, help students to visualize and discover linear algebra and allow them to explore more realistic applications that are too computationally intensive to work out by hand.
• These exercises also provide students with experience in performing matrix computations.
• Worked out examples illustrate new concepts, making the material less abstract and helping students quickly build their understanding.
• Two chapter tests for every chapter help students study for exams and get the practice they need to master the material.
• A comprehensive MATLAB® appendix gives users all the information they need to use the latest version of MATLAB. A series of MATLAB and Maple™ guides are also available at no additional charge with this text.
