0In my memory, the former lesson didn't show too many applications besides Fibonacci numbers, high order linear ODEs, etc. – 2012-10-21

2I got another answer from Ronyee from OpenStudy (MIT 18.06 Linear Algebra, Spring 2010): "I think Introduction to Linear Algebra tells us the crucial concept of Linear Algebra. Actually it has some applications but It's like a textbook. But Linear Algebra and its application is more concentrating on adapting Linear Algebra to solve a problem we faced! Conclusion: Textbook -> Adapting to solve problem in reality or supporting some engineering concepts!" – 2012-10-21
