Deepen and broaden subject knowledge to set yourself up for future success Foundation Maths 7th Edition by Croft and Davison has been written for students taking higher and further education courses who may not have specialised in mathematics on post-16 qualifications, and who require a working knowledge of mathematical and statistical tools. By providing careful and steady guidance in mathematical methods along with a wealth of practice exercises to improve your maths skills, Foundation Maths imparts confidence in its readers. For students with established mathematical expertise, this book will be an ideal revision and reference guide. The style of the book also makes it suitable for self-study and distance learning with self-assessment questions and worked examples throughout. Foundation Maths is ideally suited for students studying marketing, business studies, management, science, engineering, social science, geography, combined studies and design. Features: Mathematical processes described in everyday language. Key points highlighting important results for easy reference Worked examples included throughout the book to reinforce learning. Self-assessment questions to test understanding of important concepts, with answers provided at the back of the book. Demanding Challenge Exercises included at the end of chapters stretch the keenest of students Test and assignment exercises with answers provided in a lecturer's Solutions Manual available for download at go.pearson.com/uk/he/resources, allow lecturers to set regular work throughout the course A companion website containing a student support pack and video tutorials, as well as PowerPoint slides for lecturers, can be found at go.pearson.com/uk/he/resources New to this edition: A new section explains the importance of developing a thorough mathematical foundation in order to take advantage of and exploit the full capability of mathematical and statistical technology used in higher education and in the workplace Extensive sections throughout the book illustrate how readily-available computer software and apps can be used to perform mathematical and statistical calculations, particularly those involving algebra, calculus, graph plotting and data analysis There are revised, enhanced sections on histograms and factorisation of quadratic expressions The new edition is fully integrated with MyLab Math, a powerful online homework, tutorial and self-study system that contains over 1400 exercises that can be assigned or used for student practice, tests and homework Anthony Croft has taught mathematics in further and higher education institutions for over thirty years. During this time he has championed the development of mathematics support for the many students who find the transition from school to university mathematics particularly difficult. In 2008 he was awarded a National Teaching Fellowship in recognition of his work in this field. He has authored many successful mathematics textbooks, including several for engineering students. He was jointly awarded the IMA Gold Medal 2016 for his outstanding contribution to mathematics education. Robert Davison has thirty years' experience teaching mathematics in both further and higher education. He has authored many successful mathematics textbooks, including several for engineering students.

Developed for the new International A Level specification, these new resources are specifically designed for international students, with a strong focus on progression, recognition and transferable skills, allowing learning in a local context to a global standard. Recognised by universities worldwide and fully comparable to UK reformed GCE A levels. Supports a modular approach, in line with the specification. Appropriate international content puts learning in a real-world context, to a global standard, making it engaging and relevant for all learners. Reviewed by a language specialist to ensure materials are written in a clear and accessible style. The embedded transferable skills, needed for progression to higher education and employment, are signposted so students understand what skills they are developing and therefore go on to use these skills more effectively in the future. Exam practice provides opportunities to assess understanding and progress, so students can make the best progress they can.

Presenting innovative modelling approaches to the analysis of fiscal policy and government debt, this book moves beyond previous models that have relied upon the assumption that various age-specific rates and policy variables remain unchanged when it comes to generating government expenditures and tax revenues. As a result of population ageing, current policy settings in many countries are projected to lead to unsustainable levels of public debt; Tax Policy and Uncertainty explores models that allow for feedbacks and uncertainty to combat this. Applicable to any country, the models in the book explore the optimal timing and extent of tax changes in the face of anticipated high future debt. Chapters produce stochastic debt projections, including probability distribution of debt ratios at each point in time. It also offers important analysis of fiscal policy trade-offs as well as providing advice on when and by how much tax rates should be increased. Economics scholars focusing on fiscal policy will appreciate the improved models in this book that allow both for uncertainty and feedback effects arising from responses to increased debt. It will also be helpful to economic policy advisors and economists in government departments.

For courses in Linear Algebra. Fosters the concepts and skillsneeded for future careers Linear Algebra and ItsApplications offers a modern elementary introduction with broad, relevantapplications. With traditional texts, the early stages of the course arerelatively easy as material is presented in a familiar, concrete setting, butstudents often hit a wall when abstract concepts are introduced. Certainconcepts fundamental to the study of linear algebra (such as linearindependence, vector space, and linear transformations) require time toassimilate - and students' understanding of them is vital. Lay, Lay, and McDonald make theseconcepts more accessible by introducing them early in a familiar, concrete n setting, developing them gradually, and returning to themthroughout the text so that students can grasp them when they are discussed inthe abstract. The 6th Edition offers exciting new material, examples,and online resources, along with new topics, vignettes, and applications.
