Improvements to This Edition

Revised Content
Every section in the text underwent careful analysis and extensive review to ensure the most beneficial and clear presentation. Additional steps and definition boxes were added when necessary for greater clarity and precision, graphs and figures were revised as necessary, and discussions and introductions were added or rewritten as needed to improve presentation.

Enhanced Topic Coverage
As technology advances, trigonometric functions are becoming more and more important for all applied topics. For this reason, the chapter on Trigonometric Functions has been moved from Chapter 11 to Chapter 8. This allows classes who cover this topic to do so earlier in the term, following the syllabi of most applied calculus classes and making it clear that trigonometric functions are important for future study. Trig functions are identified and integrated throughout the later chapters, allowing those professors who cover trig functions to assign items that relate to what they have cov- ered while making it simple for students who have not seen trigonometric functions before to skip this material.
Material on the Extreme Value Property for functions of two variables and find- ing extreme values on closed, bounded regions has been added to Section 7.3. This completes the analogy with the one-variable case and better prepares students for future study of statistics and finite mathematics.

Improved Exercise Sets
Almost 250 new routine and application exercises have been added to the already extensive problem sets. A wealth of new applied problems has been added to help demonstrate the practicality of the material, and existing applications have been updated. Exercise sets have been rearranged so that applications are categorized by topic (business/economics, life and social sciences, and miscellaneous).

New Pedagogical Design Elements
Titles have been added to each example in the text, and learning objectives have been specified at the beginning of each section. Example titles allow both students and instructors to quickly find items of interest to them. These pedagogical improvements make the topics clear and comprehensible for all students, help to organize ideas, and aid both students and professors with review and evaluation.

Online Matrix Supplement
The authors have fully revised the matrix supplement. Problems and examples have been revised and updated to include more contemporary applications. The revised supplement in PDF format is posted online for instructors to download at www.mhhe.com/hoffmann.

Chapter-by-Chapter Changes

Titles have been added to all worked examples throughout the book.

A list of learning objectives has been added at the beginning of every section.

Chapter 1

New applied exercises have been added to Sections 1.1 through 1.5.

Material in Section 1.2 on the rectangular coordinate system, the distance formula, intercepts, and quadratic functions has been added and rewritten. New and revised examples support these changes.

In Section 1.4, the coverage of modeling has been revised and includes both new and revised examples.

New notes, modified language, and new and revised examples in Section 1.5 help to clarify the topics of limits and infinity.

A new example on break-even analysis has been added to Section 1.6.
