Helps students "get the idea."

Finite Mathematics for Business, Economics, Life Sciences, and Social Sciences, 14th Edition offers more built-in guidance than any other text for this course - with special emphasis on applications and prerequisite skills - and a host of student-friendly features to help students catch up or learn on their own. The text's emphasis on helping students "get the idea" is enhanced in the new edition by a design refresh, updated data and applications, and a robust MyLab (TM) Math course.



This package includes MyLab (TM) Math, an online homework, tutorial, and assessment program designed to work with this text to personalize learning and improve results. With a wide range of interactive, engaging, and assignable activities, students are encouraged to actively learn and retain tough course concepts.



MyLab should only be purchased when required by an instructor. Please be sure you have the correct ISBN and Course ID. Instructors, contact your Pearson rep for more information.
