This is a college algebra-level textbook written to provide the
kind of mathematical knowledge and experiences that students will
need for courses in other fields, such as biology, chemistry,
business, finance, economics, and other areas that are heavily
dependent on data either from laboratory experiments or from other
studies. The focus is on the fundamental mathematical concepts and
the realistic problem-solving via mathematical modeling rather than
the development of algebraic skills that might be needed in
calculus. Functions, Data, and Models presents college algebra in a
way that differs from almost all college algebra books available
today. Rather than going over material covered in high school
courses the Gordons teach something new. Students are given an
introduction to data analysis and mathematical modeling presented
at a level that students with limited algebraic skills can
understand. The book contains a rich set of exercises, many of
which use real data. Also included are thought experiments or what
if questions that are meant to stretch the student s mathematical
thinking.
