This book presents the state-of-the-art in tackling differential equations using advanced methods and software tools of symbolic computation. It focuses on the symbolic-computational aspects of three kinds of fundamental problems in differential equations: transforming the equations, solving the equations, and studying the structure and properties of their solutions.

Considered to be the hardest mathematical problems to solve, word problems continue to terrify students across all math disciplines. This new title in the World Problems series demystifies these difficult problems once and for all by showing even the most math-phobic readers simple, step-by-step tips and techniques. How to Solve World Problems in Calculus reviews important concepts in calculus and provides solved problems and step-by-step solutions. Once students have mastered the basic approaches to solving calculus word problems, they will confidently apply these new mathematical principles to even the most challenging advanced problems.Each chapter features an introduction to a problem type, definitions, related theorems, and formulas.Topics range from vital pre-calculus review to traditional calculus first-course content.Sample problems with solutions and a 50-problem chapter are ideal for self-testing.Fully explained examples with step-by-step solutions.

Pre-algebra word problems become a snap with fun amusement park examples. Readers learn how to figure out if they have enough information, how to read and understand any word problem, and more with this fully-illustrated book. Once they understand pre-algebra word problems, tests and homework are a breeze.

Give students that extra boost they need to acquire important concepts in specific areas of math. The goal of these How to books is to provide the information and practice necessary to master the math skills established by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. Each book is divided into units containing concepts, rules, terms, and formulas, followed by corresponding practice pages.

Every book in the Math Computation Skills and Strategies Series contains 125+ reproducible pages that combine solid basic math skills reinforcement with problem solving strategy instruction. The series develops fact fluency and multi digit computation skills across the strands: Number Sense, Operations, Geometry & Measurement, Algebra Readiness, and Probability.
