Mathematics with applications in the management, natural, and social sciences / Margaret L. Lial, Thomas W. Hungerford, John P. Holcomb Jr., and Bernadette Mullins - Twelve Edition. - Boston, Massachusetts : Pearson Addison Wesley, c2019 - xx, 862 pages ; 28 cm.
Includes index.
CHAPTER 1. Algebra and equations -- 2. Graphs, lines, and inequalities -- 3. Functions and graphs -- 4. Exponential and logarithmic functions -- 5. Mathematics of finance -- 6. Systems of linear equations and matrices -- 7. Linear programming -- 8. Sets and probability -- 9.Counting, probability distributions, and further topics in probability -- 10. Introduction to statistics -- 11. Differential calculus -- 12. Applications of the derivative -- 13. Integral calculus -- 14. Multivariate calculus.
The unique organization of 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.
