For arithmetic-based Business Math courses at the undergraduate level. Will sometimes fit courses titled Consumer Math or Personal Finance. The focus of the 8th Edition of Business Mathematics(Brief Edition) is to provide students with the tools they need to solve mathematical problems they will encounter in both their personal and professional lives. Students are presented math in contexts that are familiar to them and that they care about: math needed for everyday business transactions, math needed to make important personal finance decisions, and math needed to start or run a small business. Now available with Business Math Brief Version, 8/e: MathXL® and MyMathLab® for Business Math provide a powerful classroom management, homework, tutorial, and assessment tools. Students can take chapter quizzes or tests in MathXL and MyMathLab and receive personalized study plans based on their test results. The study plan diagnoses weaknesses and links students directly to tutorial exercises for the outcomes they need to study and retest. All student work can be tracked in MathXL's online gradebook. Three packaging options--MyMathLab, MathXL, or MathXL Tutorials on CD--provide flexible platforms to fit your course goals. For more information, visit our websites at www.mymathlab.com and www.mathxl.com, or contact your sales representative. This text is also available in a full version (21 chapters).

This comprehensive, detailed reference provides readers with both a working knowledge of Mathematica in general and a detailed knowledge of the key aspects needed to create the fastest, shortest, and most elegant implementations possible. It gives users a deeper understanding of Mathematica by instructive implementations, explanations, and examples from a range of disciplines at varying levels of complexity. The three volumes -- Programming, Graphics, and Mathematics, total 3,000 pages and contain more than 15,000 Mathematica inputs, over 1,500 graphics, 4,000+ references, and more than 500 exercises. This first volume begins with the structure of Mathematica expressions, the syntax of Mathematica, its programming, graphic, numeric and symbolic capabilities. It then covers the hierarchical construction of objects out of symbolic expressions, the definition of functions, the recognition of patterns and their efficient application, program flows and program structuring, and the manipulation of lists. An indispensible resource for students, researchers and professionals in mathematics, the sciences, and engineering.

This expanded edition of the original bestseller, How to Teach Mathematics, offers hands-on guidance for teaching mathematics in the modern classroom setting. Twelve appendices have been added that are written by experts who have a wide range of opinions and viewpoints on the major teaching issues. Eschewing generalities, the award-winning author and teacher, Steven Krantz, addresses issues such as preparation, presentation, discipline, and grading. He also emphasizes specifics--from how to deal with students who beg for extra points on an exam to mastering blackboard technique to how to use applications effectively. No other contemporary book addresses the principles of good teaching in such a comprehensive and cogent manner. The broad appeal of this text makes it accessible to areas other than mathematics. The principles presented can apply to a variety of disciplines--from music to English to business. Lively and humorous, yet serious and sensible, this volume offers readers incisive information and practical applications.
