The cornerstone of ELEMENTARY LINEAR ALGEBRA 7E, International Edition is Larson's clear, careful, and concise presentation of material -written so that students can fully understand how mathematics works. This program balances theory with examples, applications, and geometric intuition for a complete, step-by-step learning system. Featuring a new design that highlights the relevance of the mathematics and improves readability for students, the Seventh Edition also incorporates new conceptual Capstone exercises that reinforce multiple concepts in each section. Data and applications reflect current statistics and examples to engage students and demonstrate the link between theory and practice. Cengage Learning's Enhanced WebAssign®, which allows you to create online homework assignments that draw from thousands of the text's end-of-chapter questions, is available with the text.
