Abstract

For freshman/sophomore, 2-semester (2-3 quarter) courses covering applied calculus for students in business, economics, social sciences, or life sciences.

 

Calculus with Applications, Eleventh Edition by Lial, Greenwell, and Ritchey, is our most applied text to date, making the math relevant and accessible for students of business, life science, and social sciences. Current applications, many using real data, are incorporated in numerous forms throughout the book, preparing students for success in their professional careers. With this edition, students will find new ways to help them learn the material, such as Warm-Up Exercises and added “help text” within examples.

 

Also available with MyMathLab

The MyMathLab® course for the text provides online homework and additional learning resources for students, such as video tutorials, algebra help, step-by-step examples, and graphing calculator help. The course features many more assignable exercises than the previous edition.

 

MyMathLab not included. Students, if MyMathLab is a recommended/mandatory component of the course, please ask your instructor for the correct ISBN and course ID. MyMathLab should only be purchased when required by an instructor. Instructors, contact your Pearson representative for more information.
