This second edition of Mathematical Modeling will help you learn the basics of how to effectively model real world situations with mathematics. This book is geared towards anyone who has had 2 - 3 years of high school mathematics, or a college level Precalculus class.The approach used in this book is first, the book covers what modeling is, and the things to consider when modeling a situation. From there, we proceed to cover how to evaluate and use a given model, then we explore how to model using change, then discrete sequences, then lines, exponents, and quadratics. We then conclude with a brief discussion of which model is the best in a situation and all of the different things to consider.
