Book Description

This book demonstrates how mathematics applies to various fields of study. The text is packed with real data and real-life applications. It uses a large number of applications based on real data from business, economics, and the life and social sciences to help you see how mathematics relates to your own life and interests.

It clearly explains concepts, and the computations demonstrate enough detail to allow you to follow and learn steps in the problem-solving process. Hundreds of examples and exercises, many based on real-world data, illustrate the practical applications of mathematical concepts. The book also includes technology guidelines to help you successfully use graphing calculators and Microsoft Excel to solve selected exercises.
