DESCRIPTION:
Highly recommended and useful A Customer Exceptionally well done! The lay-out is terrific, for ease of reading and use.Includes chapters on Probability, Mathematics of Finance, Statistics and Probability, Coordinate Systems and Graphs, Set Theory, Functions, Linear Programming (A Geometric Approach), Matrices and Linear Systems, Linear Programming (An Algebraic Approach), Counting Techniques (Permutations and Combinations), Applications (Game Theory, Life Insurance, Genetics, Markov Chains), and even an Algebra Review chapter!
Comprised of nine chapters, this book begins with an introduction to set theory, explaining concepts such as sets and union and intersection of sets as well as counting elements in sets. Examples of applications are given, including those of game theory, Markov chains, and probability. Applications in fields such as business, biology, behavioral sciences, and social sciences are included. Applied Finite Mathematics presents the fundamentals of finite mathematics in a style tailored for beginners, but at the same time covers the subject matter in sufficient depth so that the student can see a rich variety of realistic and relevant applications. The discussion then turns to linear programming; matrices and linear systems; probability; and statistics. This monograph is intended for students and instructors of applied mathematics.. The final chapter is devoted to computers and programming languages such as FORTRAN. The next chapter deals with coo
