This popular learning tool is divided into 5 distinct part: Algebra Topics, Use of a Calculator, Basic Skills, Selected Solutions, and Answers to the Final Examination. In Algebra Topics, selected topics from algebra are reviewed because of their relevance to calculus. The Use of a Calculator section reviews the essential functionality of the graphing calculator and its use within precalculus. In Selected Solutions, a detailed solution of every third problem in the exercise set is given. Answers...

Contains fully worked-out solutions to all of the odd-numbered exercises in the text, giving students a way to check their answers and ensure that they took the correct steps to arrive at an answer.

Bob Blitzer has inspired thousands of students with his engaging approach to mathematics, making this beloved series the #1 in the market. Blitzer draws on his unique background in mathematics and behavioral science to present the full scope of mathematics with vivid applications in real-life situations. Students stay engaged because Blitzer often uses pop-culture and up-to-date references to connect math to students' lives, showing that their world is profoundly mathematical. With the Fifth Edi...

Precalculus, Fifth Edition, by Lial, Hornsby, Schneider, and Daniels, engages and supports students in the learning process by developing both the conceptual understanding and the analytical skills necessary for success in mathematics. With the Fifth Edition, the authors adapt to the new ways in which students are learning, as well as the ever-changing classroom environment. http://www.pearsonhighered.com/lialprecalculusinfo/

Symmetric designs are an important class of combinatorial structures which arose first in the statistics and are now especially important in the study of finite geometries. This book presents some of the algebraic techniques that have been brought to bear on the question of existence, construction and symmetry of symmetric designs – including methods inspired by the algebraic theory of coding and by the representation theory of finite groups – and includes many results. Rich in examples and cont...

The Learning Guide begins each chapter with an engaging application and is organized by objective, providing additional examples and exercises for students to work through for greater conceptual understanding and mastery of mathematical topics. The Learning Guide is available as PDFs and customizable Word files in MyMathLab. It can also be packaged with the textbook and MyMathLab access code.

Bob Blitzer's unique background in mathematics and behavioral sciences, along with his commitment to teaching, inspired him to develop a precalculus series that gets students engaged and keeps them engaged. Presenting the full scope of the mathematics is just the first step. Blitzer draws students in with vivid applications that use math to solve real-life problems. These applications help answer the question "When will I ever use this?" Students stay engaged because the book helps them remain f...
