Description
Designed to meet the needs of today's technical students and containing the same material as "Technical Mathematics", this book includes additional chapters that cover calculus from an introduction through differential equations to numerical methods. Extensive coverage and exercises allow the student the opportunity to solve problems in much the same manner they will in their career. Calculator usage is integrated throughout and includes coverage of the latest graphing calculators with explanations on how to put the latest technology to work. Hints, notes and cautions provide supplemental problem-solving techniques. Definitions, guidelines and summaries of key ideas are boxed for easy identification. Each non-review section contains at least two writing exercises.
