A grapher is required. Appropriate Courses Calculus. The Table of Contents has been streamlined and substantially revised from the first edition. Offers a balanced approach presenting functions graphically, numerically, and analytically so students can understand the connections among these representations. Students then learn how to analyze and model data, represent data graphically, interpret from graphs and fit curves.
Explorations actively involve students in understanding key calculus concepts and solving problems.
Stepped Explorations guide students to develop a mathematical model, solve the model, support or confirm the solution and interpret the solution. Exercise sets include more than 3,800 exercises including more than 560 Quick Review Exercises which can be used to introduce lessons, support examples and review skills. The book assumes familiarity with graphing technology. Students learn that technology can be used to support results, but that algebraic or analytic techniques are needed to prove results.
