Download or read book Finite Mathematics written by Daniel P. Maki and published by McGraw-Hill Science, Engineering & Mathematics. This book was released on 1983 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finite Mathematics is designed for the one-term course in finite math taken primarily by students majoring in business, economics, life sciences, and the social sciences. The mathematical integrity of the previous edition has been maintained in the new edition. The core topics and their applications are presented in Parts One and Two of this text, and additional applications are developed in Part Three. Parts One and Two are independent of one another, thus either probability or linear mathematics may be studied first. The authors' emphasis is on developing and testing the student's problem-solving ability. They use discussions and examples to illustrate ideas and techniques to aid the student in acquiring these skills. Some examples and exercises are straightforward computation, while others require that the problem be solved by combining several techniques. Since it is impossible to provide examples of every type of problem the student will encounter in the text, the authors have identified and treated the fundamental principles that should be used in unfamiliar situations.

Download or read book A Beginner s Guide to Finite Mathematics written by W.D. Wallis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-04-23 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition of A Beginner’s Guide to Finite Mathematics takes a distinctly applied approach to finite mathematics at the freshman and sophomore level. Topics are presented sequentially: the book opens with a brief review of sets and numbers, followed by an introduction to data sets, histograms, means and medians. Counting techniques and the Binomial Theorem are covered, which provides the foundation for elementary probability theory; this, in turn, leads to basic statistics. This new edition includes chapters on game theory and financial mathematics. Requiring little mathematical background beyond high school algebra, the text will be especially useful for business and liberal arts majors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Study Guide for Applied Finite Mathematics, Third Edition is a study guide that introduces beginners to the fundamentals of finite mathematics and its various realistic and relevant applications. Some applications of probability, game theory, and Markov chains are given. Each chapter includes exercises, and each set begins with basic computational "drill" problems and then progresses to problems with more substance. Comprised of 10 chapters, this book begins with exercises related to set theory and concepts such as the union and intersection of sets. Exercises on Cartesian coordinate systems and graphs as well as linear programming from a geometric and algebraic point of view are then given. Subsequent chapters deal with matrices, the solution of linear systems, and applications; the simplex method for solving linear programming problems; and probability and probability models for finite sample spaces as well as permutations, combinations, and counting methods. Basic concepts in statistics are also considered, along with the mathematics of finance. Some applications of probability, game theory, and Markov chains are also considered. This monograph is intended for students and instructors of applied mathematics.
Download or read book Finite Mathematics Models and Structure written by William J. Adams and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-02-16 with total page 621 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Still another book on finite math? Why? Hasnt everything that should have been said been said? No, I would argue. The shortcoming that troubles me most about the books I am familiar with is their failure to provide perspective on what math technique and the use of technology can do for us and its limitations. This can only be addressed through vigorous and sustained use of the mathematical modeling perspective, which is a hallmark of this books exposition. A point continually stressed is that reaching a mathematical answer to a problem is not the end of the story. It is in a sense the end of a chapter, but the next chapter is concerned with questions about whether and how the mathematical answer should be implemented. Also addressed is the question of what to consider when more than one answer is obtained for a problem.

Download or read book Finite Mathematics with Computer supported Applications written by James E. Calvert and published by McGraw-Hill Companies. This book was released on 1994 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A succinct introduction to topics in finite mathematics. The text includes examples and problems. The author takes a computer-assisted approach to problem-solving, which allows the student to focus on underlying techniques. The software package CALIPSO is bound in the back of the text. Using CALIPSO the student can perform a variety of complex operations with a minimum of effort. These operations include the Gauss-Jordan elimination methods, the geometric and simplex methods for solving linear programming problems, matrix operations and a variety of statistical and logical procedures. CALIPSO makes it possible to include more realistic applied problems, since students do not have to solve entire problems by hand. For example, CALIPSO performs the calculations necessary to solve complex problems involving interst rates, annuities and amortization. Instructions for using the package are integrated throughout the text.
