About the Book

For freshman/sophomore, second-semester or second and third quarter courses covering finite mathematics for students in management or the natural and social sciences. A strong foundation and logical progression through finite math and calculus The unique organization of Finite 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.  With an ongoing focus on real-world problem solving, almost every section in the 12th Edition includes relevant, contemporary applications and fine-tuned pedagogical devices.  A prior course in basic algebra is assumed. Also available with MyLab Math  By combining trusted authors’ content with digital tools and a flexible platform, MyLab personalizes the learning experience and improves results for each student.  Note: You are purchasing a standalone product; MyLab Math does not come packaged with this content. Students, if interested in purchasing this title with MyLab Math, ask your instructor to confirm the correct package ISBN and Course ID. Instructors, contact your Pearson representative for more information. If you would like to purchase both the physical text and MyLab Math, search for: 0134862694 / 9780134862699 Finite Mathematics with Applications and MyLab Math with Pearson eText -- Title-Specific Access Card Package, 12/e Package consists of:    0134767616 / 9780134767611 Finite Mathematics with Applications In the Management, Natural, and Social Sciences, 12/e 013485165X / 9780134851655 MyLab Math with Pearson eText -- Standalone Access Card -- for Finite Mathematics with Applications in the Management, Natural, and Social Sciences, 12/e
