30% new or updated exercises in each section keep this text fresh and relevant for today's students.
New! Concept Check exercises in the Chapter reviews help students verify their understanding of important topics.
Updated data and applications use real data from current sources.
Expanded Chapter Summaries now include important concepts, rules, and formulas, helping students review what they have learned.
New! Actuarial Problems from real actuarial science examinations and study guides require students to connect a variety of topics to successfully solve a problem. These challenging problems help students to creatively apply what they have learned.
Alternative solutions and aids for finding solutions have been incorporated into this edition based on the authors' own classroom experience and reviewer suggestions. For example, in Calculus with Applications see the additional information on the equations of tangent and secant lines in Chapter 3 and the addition of symmetry as an aid in graphing in Chapter 5.
