Features: This book is designed based on the characteristics of economics and management majors, reforming the traditional teaching content of linear algebra with modern educational perspectives. It aims to establish a new textbook system that closely integrates theoretical rigor, systematic structure, and practical application, benefiting both teachers in teaching and students in learning, to meet the needs of higher education institutions cultivating applied talents. In terms of content organization, the entire book takes solving systems of linear equations as the main thread and uses elementary row operations as a tool to discuss each chapter. Without compromising the depth and breadth of theory, it reasonably adjusts the content structure of each chapter, effectively selecting and presenting theorems, properties, and their proofs to highlight their origins and practical value. In the selection of examples, it follows the principle of choosing good problems, explaining them well, and using them effectively, increasing the types of examples to include conceptual problems, comprehensive problems, and applied problems, enabling students to master basic problem-solving methods and techniques while systematically grasping fundamental content. Regarding the exercises, they are designed based on students' actual needs, balancing rigor, teachability, practicality, comprehensiveness, and. While retaining the original exercises, it references past graduate and MBA exam questions to add exercises closely tied to the textbook content, easily solvable for students, and diverse in type. Through various innovative exercises, it guides students in independent learning and preliminary exploratory research, thereby improving the teaching quality of linear algebra.
