2.New To This Edition

New Chapter, New Section: This edition contains a new chapter on statistics as well as a new section on straight line graphing.
Revised Exercises: Many of the exercises have been revised to ensure they are scaffolded in difficulty level from easy to challenging.

3.Hallmark Features

Clarity of presentation: This is the feature most mentioned by reviewers, and has obvious benefits to students and instructors.
Technical Applications: The technical applications provide motivation for the student and examples for an instructor who may not have a technical background. Additionally, an Index to Applications aids in finding applications in a particular field, such as electrical technology.
Estimation: Shows a student whether an answer is reasonable or not reasonable. They show common pitfalls for both student and instructor and are flagged and boxed, wherever appropriate.
Formulas: Formulas used in the text are boxed and numbered, and listed in the Appendix as the Summary of Facts and Formulas.
Writing, Projects, Internet: Every chapter concludes with a section of optional enrichment activities. Many students are attracted to the magic and history of mathematics and welcome a guided introduction into this world. These writing questions aim to test and expand a student's knowledge of the material and perhaps explore areas outside of those covered in class while team projects foster "collaborative learning."
