Applied Linear Algebra, 1/e This text aims to teach basic methods and algorithms used in modern, real problems that are likely to be encountered by engineering and science students - and to foster understanding of why mathematical techniques work and how they can be derived from first principles. No text goes as far (and wide) in applications. The authors present applications hand in hand with theory, leading students through the reasoning that leads to the important results, and provide theorems and proofs where needed. Because no previous exposure to linear algebra is assumed, the text can be used for a motivated entry-level class as well as advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate engineering/applied math students. Maple 10, 1/e Maple 10 is a computer algebra system available from Maplesoft capable of performing mathematical calculations as well as programming, and 2-D and 3-D visualizations. Maple 10 offers full computing support for any activity involving mathematics, including numerical computation, symbolic computation, data visualization and technical authoring of mathematical documents.Students can enter and solve problems interactively, see what they have entered represented graphically, link their work to Excel spreadsheets, publish to the web in Maple applets and Java applets, and much more.
The Maple 10 Student Edition CD is only GBP10 when bundled with any Pearson maths title. If the student were to purchase Maple through Maplesoft, the price would be GBP80
