Description: Finite Mathematics With Calculus blends elements of reform with a strong emphasis on applications, and uses technology to promote understanding of the concepts and relevance of the material. Users praise the diversity, breadth, and abundance of examples and exercises, a large number of which are based on referenced data from business, economics, life, and social sciences. The authors carefully strike a pedagogically sound balance between applications based on real data and more traditional "generic" applications.
-- Real data-based applications have been tailored to the pedagogical goals and appropriate difficulty level for each section.
-- Before We Go On supplementary discussions follow most examples and may include a check on the answer, discussion of the feasibility and significance of a solution, or an in-depth look at what the solution means.
-- Through expanded use of question-and-answer dialogues, unique interactive discourse is implemented within the printed book, and most dramatically through the web site.
