Elementary Math Modeling Updated (2nd Edition)

For introductory college math course at the college algebra level for non-calculus bound students. Designed for students who are not headed for calculus-based curricula but who still need a solid quantitative foundation for subsequent studies and for life as educated citizens this introduction to mathematical modeling offers an alternative approach to college algebra. The authors use elementary functions to describe and explore real-world data and phenomena. Students learn how to construct useful mathematical models, to analyze them critically, and to communicate quantitative concepts effectively. The Second Edition is even more student-friendly, with more concrete language and examples throughout.C. Henry Edwards is the author of 'Elementary Math Modeling Updated (2nd Edition)', published 2007 under ISBN 9780136154167 and ISBN 0136154166.
