Reflecting Cengage Learning's commitment to offering value for students, this new hybrid edition features the instructional presentation found in the full text while delivering all of end-of-section exercises online in Enhanced WebAssign. Access to Enhanced WebAssign includes the new media-rich Cengage YouBook, giving you an interactive learning experience with the convenience of a text that is both brief and affordable. MATHEMATICAL APPLICATIONS FOR THE MANAGEMENT, LIFE, AND SOCIAL SCIENCES, 10th Edition, is intended for a two-semester applied calculus or combined finite mathematics and applied calculus course. The book's concept-based approach, multiple presentation methods, and interesting and relevant applications keep students who typically take the course--business, economics, life sciences, and social sciences majors--engaged in the material. This edition broadens the book's real-life context by adding a number of environmental science and economic applications. The use of modeling has been expanded, with modeling problems now clearly labeled in the examples. Also included in the Tenth Edition is a brief review of algebra to prepare students with different backgrounds for the material in later chapters.

New from James Stewart and Dan Clegg, BRIEF APPLIED CALCULUS, International Edition takes an intuitive, less formal approach to calculus without sacrificing the mathematical integrity. Featuring a wide range of applications designed to motivate students with a variety of interests, clear examples detailing important mathematical processes, and a vast collection of exercises appropriate for students with disparate skill sets, this first edition is perfect for students who need to learn how to apply calculus concepts rather than replicate the formal proofs behind the techniques. Early coverage of exponential and logarithmic functions allows for the inclusion of many interesting applications throughout the text. Available with a range of supplements including Enhanced WebAssign®, BRIEF APPLIED CALCULUS, International Edition makes calculus approachable so any student can understand the concepts and be successful in the course.

Este es el mejor libro de instrucción sobre la pintura al óleo escrito sin ambigüedades, en español con palabras simples y claras. Alejandro demuestra con una gran cantidad de ejemplos las idea sque él explica. El libro sigue un formato similar pero expandido del curso de cinco videos con el mismo título que el profesor y artista Alejandro de Jesús publicó en el año 2006 y que ha sido adquirido por estudiantes y artistas alrededor del mundo. Es un curso completo que provee al principiante y estudiante avanzado una riqueza de soluciones, técnicas y recomendaciones de mucho valor, pero el artista con experiencia también encontrará un cúmulo de ideas muy útiles que le servirán de referencia en su oficio de pintor.

Introduction to Technical Mathematics, Fifth Edition, has been thoroughly revised and modernized with up-to-date applications, an expanded art program, and new pedagogy to help today’s students relate to the mathematics they are learning. The new edition continues to provide a thorough review of arithmetic and a solid foundation in algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. In addition to thousands of exercises, the examples in this text include a wealth of applications from various technological fields: electronics, mechanics, civil engineering, forestry, architecture, industrial engineering and design, physics, chemistry, and computer science. To enhance your course, the fifth edition is now available with Addison-Wesley’s MathXL® and MyMathLab ® technologies.

"The text is suitable for a typical introductory algebra course, and was developed to be used flexibly. While the breadth of topics may go beyond what an instructor would cover, the modular approach and the richness of content ensures that the book meets the needs of a variety of programs."--Page 1.
