Description For a three-semester or four-quarter calculus course covering single variable and multivariable calculus for mathematics, engineering, and science majors. This text offers a superior teaching and learning experience.

Reflects how students use a textbook —they start with the exercises and flip back for help if they need it. Organization and presentation of content facilitates learning of key concepts, skills, and applications. Series This product is part of the following series.

The MyMathLab course for the text features: More than 7, assignable exerc ises to provide you with the options you need to meet the needs of students. Most exercises can be algorithmically regenerated for unlimited practice. Learning aids include guided exercises, additional examples, and tutorial videos.

You control how much help your students can get and when. The figures are also ideal for in-class demonstrations. Interactive Figure Exercises provide a way for you to make the most of the Interactive Figures by including them in homework assignments. The addition of: Hundreds of new algorithmic exercises that correspond to those in the text.

To help determine which exercises to add, we analyzed data mined from students using the MyMathLab course from the first edition. These exercises provide support for students in their first attempts at new and important problems.

More exercises that call for student manipulation and analysis of the Interactive Figures. Exercises that take advantage of the more sophisticated graphing functionality recently added to MyMathLab. A Conceptual Questions Library that augments the text exercises to focus on deeper, theoretical understanding of the key concepts in calculus. The requirement that students provide units for real-world exercises e. Answer-checking algorithms have been re-checked and refined where necessary.

To address the growing use of video by students and instructors, we have greatly increased the number of instructional videos. Comprehensive exercise sets provide for a variety of student needs and are consistently structured and labeled to facilitate the creation of homework assignments.

Review Questions check that students have a general conceptual understanding of the essential ideas from the section. Basic Skills exercises are linked to examples in the section so students get off to a good start with homework. Applications present practical and novel applications and models that use the ideas presented in the section.

Additional Exercises challenge students to stretch their understanding by working through abstract exercises and proofs. When students flip back to the narrative for help with exercises, they find: Writing that reflects the voice of the instructor.

Plentiful examples, each stepped-out in detail. Within examples, the steps are annotated in blue type to help students understand what took place in each step. Figures that are designed to teach rather than simply supplement the narrative. The figures are annotated to lead students through the key ideas, and rendered using the latest software for unmatched clarity and precision.

Quick Check exercises punctuate the narrative at key points to test understanding of basic ideas and encourage students to read with pencil in hand. Topics are introduced through concrete examples, geometric arguments, applications, and analogies rather than through abstract arguments.

The Interactive Figures in the eBook provide a resource for instructors to help students visualize concepts where chalk or a marker falls short. The exercises that accompany the figures provide an opportunity for students to manipulate them as part of homework. Sequences and Series , the most challenging content in Calculus 2 for students, has been spread over two chapters to help clarify and pace it more effectively.

Chapter 8, Sequences and Infinite Series, begins by providing a big picture with concrete examples of the difference between a sequence and a series followed by studying the properties and limits of sequences in addition to studying special infinite series and convergence tests. This chapter lays the groundwork for analyzing the absolute convergence for power series.

Chapter 9, Power Series, begins with approximating with polynomials. Request a copy. Additional order info. Buy this product. K educators : This link is for individuals purchasing with credit cards or PayPal only. Briggs, Cochran, Gillett, and Schulz build from a foundation of meticulously crafted exercise sets, then draw students into the narrative through writing that reflects the voice of the instructor. Examples are stepped out and thoughtfully annotated, and figures are designed to teach rather than simply supplement the narrative.

The groundbreaking eBook contains approximately Interactive Figures that can be manipulated to shed light on key concepts. This product is part of the following series.

Chapter Review exercises received a major revamp to provide more exercises, particularly intermediate-level problems, and more opportunities for students to choose a strategy of solution.

The results of this analysis helped improve the quality and quantity of text and MyLab exercises and learning aids that matter the most to instructors and students. Additional practice problems — beyond those in the textbook sections — have been added to selected sections within MyLab Math. These problems are clearly labeled EXTRA and are perfect for use in chapter reviews or practice tests.

Enhanced Sample Assignments — These section-level assignments include just-in-time prerequisite review, help keep skills fresh with spaced practice of key concepts, and provide opportunities to work exercises without learning aids so students check their understanding. They are assignable and editable within MyLab Math. This new exercise type was widely praised by users of the 2nd edition, so more were added to the 3rd edition.

Enhanced Interactive Figures — By incorporating functionality from several standard Interactive Figures, Enhanced Interactive Figures are mathematically richer and ideal for in-class demonstrations. Using a single figure, instructors can illustrate concepts that are difficult for students to visualize and make important connections to key themes of calculus. Instructional Videos — For each section of the text, there is now a new full-lecture video.

Many of these videos make use of Interactive Figures to enhance student understanding of concepts. To make it easier for students to navigate to the content they need, each lecture video is segmented into shorter clips labeled Introduction, Example, or Summary. Each manual provides detailed guidance for integrating the software package or graphing calculator throughout the course, including syntax and commands.

The projects include instructions and ready-made application files for Maple and Mathematica. Below are noteworthy changes from the previous edition of the text. Many other detailed changes, not noted here, were made to improve the quality of the narrative and exercises. Properties of Convergent Series Theorem Example An issue with exercises in the previous edition has been addressed by adding many exercises that involve power series centered at locations other than 0.

The arc length of a curve described in polar coordinates is given in There is a larger selection of exercises in Exercises are also included where students design shapes using quadric surfaces. Because the arc length of plane curves described parametrically in The authors also make it clear that care must be taken when using the method of Lagrange multipliers on sets that are not closed and bounded absolute maximum and minimum values may not exist.

More exercises have been added to Also, more exercises have been added that require triple integrals to be expressed in several orderings. In Sequences and Infinite Series. Access Code Card.

Series This product is part of the following series. The exercise sets are a major focus of the revision. In response to reviewer and instructor feedback, the authors implemented some significant changes to the exercise sets by rearranging and relabeling exercises, modifying some exercises, and adding many new ones.

A simplified exercise set structure went from including five parts to three: Getting Started, Practice Exercises, Explorations and Challenges. Figures — Based on their experiences with students who learn better once they are able to visualize concepts, the authors devoted considerable time and deliberation to the figures in this book.

Readers will quickly find that the figures facilitate learning in new ways. Annotated Examples — Worked-out examples feature annotations set in blue type to guide students through the process of a solution and to emphasize that each step in a mathematical argument is rigorously justified.
