Publisher's Synopsis
- Volume I is appropriate for undergraduate math courses in single-variable Business Calculus (including Brief Calculus).
- Volume II is a follow-up covering finite math topics, multivariable calculus, and least squares regression. Appropriate as the 2nd semester materials to a Math for Business course.
The text's overall approach is problem-driven with topics motivated and developed using interesting and useful real-world examples, many from actual student projects. The focus of the text is on the entire process of problem-solving, including the formulation and validation of mathematical models. It emphasizes conceptual understanding so students can use techniques and technology intelligently as a tool for solving real problems. (Graphing calculator and/or spreadsheet are recommended.)
