Precalculus: Enhanced with Graphing Utilities (5th Edition)
by Michael SullivanThese authors understand what it takes to be successful in mathematics, the skills that students bring to this course, and the way that technology can be used to enhance learning without sacrificing math skills. As a result, they have created a textbook with an overall learning system involving preparation, practice, and review to help students get the most out of the time they put into studying. In sum, Sullivan and Sullivan's Precalculus:Enhanced with Graphing Utilities gives students a model for success in mathematics.
Precalculus: Graphical, Numerical, Algebraic (7th Edition)
by Bert K. Waits Gregory D. Foley Daniel Kennedy Franklin D. DemanaIn this new edition of Precalculus,Seventh Edition, the authors encourage graphical, numerical, and algebraic modeling of functions as well as a focus on problem solving, conceptual understanding, and facility with technology. They responded to many helpful suggestions provided by students and teachers in order to create a book that is designed for instructors and written for students. As a result, we believe that the changes made in this edition make this the most effective precalculus text available today.
Precalculus
by Cynthia Y. YoungPrecalculus was developed to create a program that seamlessly align with how teachers teach and fully supports student learning. Cynthia Young’s goal was to create an intuitive, supportive product for students without sacrificing the rigor needed for true conceptual understanding and preparation for Calculus. Precalculus helps bridge the gap between in-class work and homework by mirroring the instructor voice outside the classroom through pedagogical features.
Precalculus (5th edition)
by Ron Larson Robert P. HostetlerThis comprehensive book provides complete coverage of the function concept and integrates substantial graphing calculator materials that help students develop insight into mathematical ideas.
Precalculus (7th Edition)
by Ron Larson Robert Hostetler David C. FalvoThe authors use precise mathematical language and a clear writing style to develop an effective learning tool for students. Solutions to examples are derived side by side - algebraically, graphically, and numerically.
Precalculus (9th Edition)
by Michael SullivanMike Sullivan's time-tested approach focuses students on the fundamental skills they need for the course: preparing for class, practicing with homework, and reviewing the concepts. In the Ninth Edition, Precalculus has evolved to meet today's course needs, building on these hallmarks by integrating projects and other interactive learning tools for use in the classroom or online.
Precalculus Advanced Placement
by Ron LarsonWelcome to Pre calculus, Sixth Edition. In this revision we continue to focus on promoting student success, while providing an accessible text that offers flexible teaching and learning options.

Precalculus Functions And Graphs: A Graphing Approach
by Ron Larson Robert Hostetler Bruce Edwards David FalvoPart of the market-leading Graphing Approach Series by Larson, Hostetler, and Edwards, Precalculus Functions and Graphs: A Graphing Approach, 5/e, is an ideal student and instructor resource for courses that require the use of a graphing calculator. The quality and quantity of the exercises, combined with interesting applications and innovative resources, make teaching easier and help students succeed. Continuing the series' emphasis on student support, the Fifth Edition introduces Prerequisite Skills Review. For selected examples throughout the text, the Prerequisite Skills Review directs students to previous sections in the text to review concepts and skills needed to master the material at hand. In addition, prerequisite skills review exercises in Eduspace are referenced in every exercise set. The Larson team achieves accessibility through careful writing and design, including examples with detailed solutions that begin and end on the same page, which maximizes the readability of the text. Similarly, side-by-side solutions show algebraic, graphical, and numerical representations of the mathematics and support a variety of learning styles.
Precalculus High School
by Julie Miller Donna GerkenJulie Miller wrote her developmental math series because students were coming into her Precalculus course underprepared. They weren t mathematically mature enough to understand the concepts of math nor were they fully engaged with the material. She began her developmental mathematics offerings with intermediate algebra to help bridge that gap. The Precalculus series is a carefully constructed end to that bridge that uses the highly effective pedagogical features from her fastest growing developmental math series. What sets Julie Miller s series apart is that it addresses course issues through an author-created digital package that maintains a consistent voice and notation throughout the program. This consistency--in videos, PowerPoints, Lecture Notes, and Group Activities--coupled with the power of ALEKS and Connect Hosted by ALEKS, ensures that students master the skills necessary to be successful in Precalculus and can carry them through to the calculus sequence."
Precalculus: An Investigation of Functions
by David Lippman Melonie RasmussenThis book is a free, open textbook covering a two-quarter pre-calculus sequence including trigonometry. The first portion of the book is an investigation of functions, exploring the graphical behavior of, interpretation of, and solutions to problems involving linear, polynomial, rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions. An emphasis is placed on modeling and interpretation, as well as the important characteristics needed in calculus. The second portion of the book introduces trigonometry. Trig is introduced through an integrated circle/triangle approach. Identities are introduced in the first chapter, and revisited throughout. Likewise, solving is introduced in the second chapter and revisted more extensively in the third chapter. As with the first part of the book, an emphasis is placed on motivating the concepts and on modeling and interpretation. In addition to the paper homework sets, algorithmically generated online homework is available as part of a complete course shell package, which also includes a sample syllabus, teacher notes with lecture examples, sample quizzes and exams, printable classwork sheets and handouts, and chapter review problems.
