This book helps readers develop the quantitativeliteracy skills and savvy needed to function effectively in societyand the workplace. It focuses on "mathematical modeling" and the useof elementary mathematics -- e.g., numbers and measurement, algebra, geometry, and data exploration -- to investigate real-world problems and questions. It assumes no technology other than the use of graphingcalculators, and provides a comprehensive technology support system onan accompanying CD-ROM and web site. LinearFunctions and Models. Quadratic Functions and Models. Natural GrowthModels. Exponential and trigonometric Models. Polynomial Models andLinear Systems. Optimization Problems. Bounded Growth Models.
