Riassunto

This brief book presents an accessible treatment of multivariable calculus with an early emphasis on linear algebra as a tool. Its organization draws strong analogies with the basic ideas of elementary calculus (derivative, integral, and fundamental theorem). Traditional in approach, it is written with an assumption that the student reader may have computing facilities for two- and three-dimensional graphics, and for doing symbolic algebra. KEY TOPICS: Chapter topics include coordinate and vector geometry, differentiation, applications of differentiation, integration, and fundamental theorems. MARKET: For those with knowledge of introductory calculus in a wide range of disciplines including—but not limited to—mathematics, engineering, physics, chemistry, and economics.

Product Description

Designed for one semester, sophomore-level courses in vector calculus and multivariable calculus, this brief book presents an accessible treatment of multivariable calculus with an early emphasis on linear algebra as a tool. The organization of the text draws strong analogies with the basic ideas of elementary calculus (derivative, integral, and fundamental theorem). Traditional in approach, the text is written with an assumption that the student may have computing facilities for two- and three-dimensional graphics, and for doing symbolic algebra. This edition includes coverage of constrained optimization/Lagrange multipliers, along with second derivative tests and student-tested laboratory and writing exercises. The text should help students to investigate mathematical problems using software tools, and encourage them to practice their writing skills through experiences in the laboratory.
