内容説明

For courses in Mathematics for Business and Mathematical Methods in Business. This acclaimed text provides a solid mathematical foundation in business, economics, and the life and social sciences. Beginning with precalculus and finite math topics such as equations, functions, matrix algebra, linear programming, mathematics of finance, and probability, it then progresses through single and multivariable calculus. An abundance and variety of applications appear throughout, enabling students to continually see how the mathematics being taught can be put into practice.
