Haeussler, Ernest F.
Introductory mathematical analysis for business, economics, and the life and social sciences / Ernest F. Haeussler, Jr., Richard S. Paul, Richard J. Wood. - 13th ed. - Boston : Pearson Education, c2011. - xvii, 811, [50] p. : ill. ; 29 cm.
Includes appendices.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
College algebra -- Review of algebra -- Applications and more algebra -- Functions and graphs -- Lines, parabolas, and systems -- Exponential and logarithmetic functions -- Finite mathematics -- Mathematics of finance -- Matrix algebra -- Linear programming -- Introduction to probability and statistics -- Additional topics in probability -- Calculus -- Limits and continuity -- Differentiation -- Additional differentiation topics -- Curve sketching --Integration -- Methods and applications of integration -- Continuous random variables -- Multivariable calculus -- App. A. Compound interest tables -- App. B. Table of selected integrals -- App. C. Areas under the standard normal curve.
Haeussler and Wood establish a strong algebraic foundation that sets this text apart from other applied mathematics texts, paving the way for readers to solve real-world problems that use calculus. Emphasis on developing algebraic skills is extended to the exercises - including both drill problems and applications. The authors work through examples and explanations with a blend of rigor and accessibility. In addition, they have refined the flow, transitions, organization, and portioning of the content over many editions to optimize learning for readers. The table of contents covers a wide range of topics efficiently, enabling readers to gain a diverse understanding.
