Book Synopsis This new compelling resource for students correlates to the text and provides students with opportunities to dig into data and solve problems using pencil and paper. The workbook includes: Explorations that offer collaborative activities to support discovery of key concepts. Modeling exercises with authentic data that give students more practice on this multi-faceted concept, that can be sometimes hard to fully accomplish through MyLab Math. Projects that can be either open-ended or more guided, and ask students to dig deeper into a data set and think critically. Graphing exercises that ask students to practice graphing on their own, beyond what they do in MyLab Math. Mini-Essay questions that prompt students to think conceptually, also beyond what they do in MyLab Math.

Book SynopsisMarge Lial (late) was always interested in math; it was her favorite subject in the first grade! Marge's intense desire to educate both her students and herself has inspired the writing of numerous best-selling textbooks. Marge, who received Bachelor's and Master's degrees from California State University at Sacramento, was affiliated with American River College. An avid reader and traveler, her travel experiences often found their way into her books as applications, exercise sets, and feature sets. Her interest in archeology led to trips to various digs and ruin sites, producing some fascinating problems for her textbooks involving such topics as the building of Mayan pyramids and the acoustics of ancient ball courts in the Yucatan. When John Hornsby enrolled as an undergraduate at Louisiana State University, he was uncertain whether he wanted to study mathematics education or journalism.
