Linear Algebra and Its Applications Global Edition - David C. Lay

For courses in linear algebra. With traditional linear algebra texts the course is relatively easy for students during the early stages as material is presented in a familiar concrete setting. However when abstract concepts are introduced students often hit a wall. Instructors seem to agree that certain concepts (such as linear independence spanning subspace vector space and linear transformations) are not easily understood and require time to assimilate. These concepts are fundamental to the study of linear algebra so students' understanding of them is vital to mastering the subject. This text makes these concepts more accessible by introducing them early in a familiar concrete Rn setting developing them gradually and returning to them throughout the text so that when they are discussed in the abstract students are readily able to understand. MyMathLab is an online homework tutorial and assessment product designed to personalize learning and improve results. With a wide range of interactive engaging and assignable activities students are encouraged to actively learn and retain tough course concepts. Please note that the product you are purchasing does not include MyMathLab. MyMathLab Join over 11 million students benefiting from Pearson MyLabs. This title can be supported by MyMathLab an online homework and tutorial system designed to test and build your understanding. Would you like to use the power of MyMathLab to accelerate your learning? You need both an access card and a course ID to access MyMathLab. These are the steps you need to take: 1. Make sure that your lecturer is already using the system Ask your lecturer before purchasing a MyLab product as you will need a course ID from them before you can gain access to the system. 2. Check whether an access card has been included with the book at a reduced cost If it has it will be on the inside back cover of the book. 3. If you have a course ID but no access code you can benefit from MyMathLab at a reduced price by purchasing a pack containing a copy of the book and an access code for MyMathLab (ISBN:9781292092348) 4. If your lecturer is using the MyLab and you would like to purchase the product... Go to www.mymathlab.com to buy access to this interactive study programme.
