Mathematical Ideas
Charles David Miller, Vern E. Heeren, E. John Hornsby, Christopher Heeren
Mathematical Ideas connects math to your current and future life and career, with timely and relevant applications. It is designed for non-STEM majors and focuses on math in the workplace, supported by broad coverage, clear organization, abundant examples and well-planned exercise sets. Features like “When Will I Ever Use This?” in each chapter connect topics to career or workplace situations. Problem-solving strategies help increase your problem-solving skills, and “For Further Thought” encourages you to share your reasoning with other students for deeper understanding. Graphing calculators are optional. Among other enhancements, the 15th Edition adds a wealth of updated applications such as Approximating Average Number of Points per Game, Evaluating COVID-19 Risks, and more.
