Designed to enhance a traditional calculus curriculum, this text offers guidance in utilizing Mathematica to explore calculus concepts. Focusing on the process of mathematics rather than on finding single right answers, this book involves students in actively observing and analyzing mathematical principles using Mathematica to handle the manipulative work. With this text, students should learn to utilize Mathematica - particularly its numerical, symbolic, and graphing capabilities - to discover for themselves why mathematical principles work as they do, building stronger conceptual understanding in the process. The topics addressed involve sophisticated mathematics but also produce pictorial results, engaging students in the ideas and increasing their ability to view them geometrically. The activities should also develop students' sophistication in choosing and employing technology effectively.

This is a print version of worked-out solutions for select odd-numbered problems found in the text. Electronic version included in Calculus: An Interactive Version.

Applied Calculus fully embraces the "reform" being called for in calculus teaching and learning. All key concepts are presented following the Rule of Three: from a graphical, numerical, and algebraic viewpoint, encouraging students to visualize, verbalize and write. By always bringing these viewpoints to bear on each topic, the text presents a conceptual understanding of the calculus that is deep and flexible enough to accommodate the many diverse business and science applications presented. The graphing calculator is fully integrated to make these viewpoints and the applications more accessible. Features: * Technology is fully integrated throughout the text and is used to assist the students to think about the geometric and numerical meaning of calculus, without undermining the algebraic aspects. When applicable, examples are demonstrated with graphing calculators. In almost all cases, they represent opportunities for the instructor to have the students reproduce these screens on their graphing calculators, making the student an active partner in the learning process. * Procedures and definitions evolve from the investigation of section-opening applications. These applications are extensive, varied, referenced, and realistic and allow topics to be taught using an investigative, exploratory approach. * Extensive exercises involving writing, exploration, and creativity are given to help students gain better problem-solving skills. Meaningful applications, drawn from a variety of fields, are given for all the mathematics that is presented to motivate the students. Many of the applications are referenced from the modern day journals and articles. * "Explorations", individual or group projects, and writing exercises present students with the opportunity to learn through their own investigations, explore their interests, and increase their communication skills, both inside and outside the classroom.

COLLEGE ALGEBRA AND CALCULUS: AN APPLIED APPROACH, International Edition, the newest addition to the Larson Applied math family, allows your students to feel confident moving from college algebra to applied calculus. The mathematical concepts and applications are consistently presented in the same tone and pedagogy. The combination of these two subjects into one text will not only save you time in your course, but it will also save your students the cost of an extra textbook.

This manual contains solutions to odd-numbered Section Exercises, selected Chapter Review Exercises, odd-numbered Discussion Exercises and all Chapter Test Exercises--giving you a way to check your answers and ensure that you took the correct steps to arrive at an answer.
