| 520 | _aFinite Mathematics and Applied Calculus is intended for a one-or two-term course forstudents majoring in business, the social sciences, or the liberal arts.The eighth editionis designed to address two challenges: (1) generating enthusiasm and mathematicalsophistication in a student audience that may not have optimum preparation and maynot be intrinsically motivated by traditional mathematics courses, and (2)providingthe structure and flexibility to support instructors in implementing a wide variety ofpedagogical philosophies and instructional paradigms. In the eighth edition we meet these challenges through significant enhancementsin content and context: ·we focus on up-to-date real-life applications that students can relate to and instruc-tors can use to engage their audience, ·we present mathematical concepts intuitively and thoroughly with a writing stylethat is informal,engaging, and occasionally even humorous. ·we have streamlined and enhanced the thematic structure throughout the book. ·we support all levels of technology usage. Our text provides comprehensive supportfor various technologies, including graphing calculators, spreadsheets,and our pow-erful online utilities. This is carefully implemented to make this edition work seam-lessly in courses that use no technology,that focus on a single form of technology,orthat incorporate several technologies. No previous calculus background is assumed. Although we provide extensive reviewof precalculus skills and concepts in Chapter 0,students should have completed col-lege algebra or the equivalent as a prerequisite. | ||
