Finite Mathematics with Applications in the Management, Natural, and Social Sciences

By Nicholas Sparks

Book Overview

For freshman/sophomore, second-semester or second and third quarter courses covering finite mathematics for students in management or the natural and social sciences. A strong foundation and logical progression through finite math and calculus The unique organization of Finite Mathematics with Applications in the Management, Natural, and Social Sciences gives students four chapters of college algebra, rather than the usual two, before moving into finite math and calculus. From there, the authors build upon familiar foundations and then move to new concepts; students are shown concrete examples before learning general rules and formulas. With an ongoing focus on real-world problem solving, almost every section in the 12th Edition includes relevant, contemporary applications and fine-tuned pedagogical devices. A prior course in basic algebra is assumed. Also available with MyLab Math By combining trusted authors' content with digital tools and a flexible platform, MyLab personalizes the learning experience and improves results for each student.

I bought this book so I could get ready for school in two months. I found the book to be very helpful. The problems and the explanation on how to solve them were explained step by step. I defenately recommend it. Victor

Cheap Alternative

Even though I couldn't use the code for the online portion for the math course I'm taking, this is still a great deal. It definitely helped in terms of paying off my school books as well as fees and tuition for classes. I'd definitely would recommend this seller!

Wah.

I'm not sure what the deal is with all the whiny bed-wetters. This book was a breeze to follow if the user/student pays attention to the "Technology Tips" which are sprinkled throughout the book, reads the text before starting the exercises, and keeps a calculator handy to do the side problems. As the author clearly states, "Mathematics is not a spectator sport". You have to do the work.
