Linear algebra was more like theory, while linear programming was more like applications. It involved teamwork, projects, case studies, and gaining competency using software solvers; whereas my linear algebra course was lecture/exam based, had no teamwork, and wasn't framed with a practical lens with an eye toward real-world applications and scenarios. I had a lot more to learn in linear programming after linear algebra.
