Precalculus: A Graphing Approach
by Thomas W. Hungerford Betty Mayberry Irene Sam JovellThis book provides the mathematical background needed for calculus. The text integrates graphing technology into the course without losing the underlying mathematics, which is the crucial issue. Mathematics is presented in an informal manner that stresses meaningful motivation, careful explanations, and numerous examples, with an ongoing focus on real-world problem solving.
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.

Precalculus: Enhanced with Graphing Utilities (4th Edition, Texas Edition)
by Michael SullivanThe goal of this textbook is to develop a high level of mathematical understanding and an appreciation for the way mathematics can describe the world around us.
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: Functions and Graphs
by Mark DugopolskiThe Right Tools to Drive Your Success <p> Dugopolski’s Precalculus: Functions and Graphs, Fourth Edition gives students the essential strategies they need to make the transition to calculus. <p><p>Along the way, students see how the algebra connects to their future calculus courses, with tools like Foreshadowing Calculus and Concepts of Calculus. The author’s emphasis on problem solving and critical thinking is enhanced by a new MyMathLab course, where students will find new Video Assessment questions tied to section lecture videos; Getting Ready material to help learn necessary prerequisite skills; Guided Visualizations, and more!

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: Graphs & Models, 2nd Edition
by Judith A. Beecher Judith A. Penna Marvin L Bittinger David EllenbogenPrecalculus: Graphs and Models, Second Edition, covers college-level algebra and trigonometry and is appropriate for a one- or two-term course in precalculus mathematics.
Precalculus: Mathematics for Calculus
by James Stewart Lothar Redlin Saleem WatsonStewart (McMaster University) provides a text/CD-ROM package for students preparing to study calculus. The main change in this fifth edition is an expanded emphasis on modeling and applications. In each section, applications exercises have been expanded and grouped together, and each chapter now ends with a focus on modeling. The chapter on analytic trigonometry has been divided into two chapters, and new discovery projects, mathematical vignettes, and exercises have been included. Chapter overviews are also new. The CD-ROM contains video instruction on text topics. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc. , Portland, OR (booknews. com)
