  calculus for business and social sciences: Applied Calculus Denny Burzynski, Guy D. Sanders, 1996 Through an interpretative approach, numbers arrived at through calculus operations have meanings attached to them. Most calculus texts end discussions of concepts with examples and exercises which almost always result in numerical answers. The authors state that this tells the student that the answer is a number. To students reading business, the life sciences or social science, who want to know how calculus applies to other fields, a more meaningful approach is to interpret what that number means.

  calculus for business and social sciences: Business Calculus: Backward and Forward (First Edition) Michel Mallenby, James Carlson, 2020-01-13 Business Calculus: Backward and Forward presents calculus lessons backward--from definite integrals to limits to derivatives to indefinite integrals. This approach first introduces the concept of area, which is more intuitive for students, before advancing to the concept of slope. Additionally, the text features exercises and problems that are exclusively business related. All solutions to odd-numbered problems are included, as well as answers to even-numbered problems. In Unit I, students learn integration in order to find the area between curves, using linear, quadratic, cubic, and exponential functions. Unit II focuses on determining limits. Students then learn how Riemann Sums can be used to approximate areas. In Units III and IV, students learn the Power Rule for taking derivatives and then learn to identify curve properties such as slope, concavity, relative and absolute extrema, and inflection points. Unit V incorporates the Product and Quotient Rules, the Chain Rule, and derivatives of transcendental functions. The final unit addresses implicit differentiation, related rates, integration by substitution, and a return to integration with indefinite integrals. Review material is included throughout the text to assist students in revisiting previously learned material and support mastery of new concepts. Featuring a class-tested, innovative approach, Business Calculus is an ideal resource for courses in applied mathematics for business.

  calculus for business and social sciences: A Tour of the Calculus David Berlinski, 2011-04-27 Were it not for the calculus, mathematicians would have no way to describe the acceleration of a motorcycle or the effect of gravity on thrown balls and distant planets, or to prove that a man could cross a room and eventually touch the opposite wall. Just how calculus makes these things possible and in doing so finds a correspondence between real numbers and the real world is the subject of this dazzling book by a writer of extraordinary clarity and stylistic brio. Even as he initiates us into the mysteries of real numbers, functions, and limits, Berlinski explores the furthest implications of his subject, revealing how the calculus reconciles the precision of numbers with the fluidity of the changing universe. An odd and tantalizing book by a writer who takes immense pleasure in this great mathematical tool, and tries to create it in others.--New York Times Book Review

  calculus for business and social sciences: Maths for Social Sciences Lorenzo Peccati, Mauro D'Amico, Margherita Cigola, 2018-12-28 This book is aimed at students in social sciences programs that include some course in quantitative methods. Stats for social sciences is frequently the subject of textbooks, while maths for social sciences is often neglected: monographs on specific themes (like, for instance, social choice systems or game theory applications) are available, but they do not adequately cover the topic in general. This textbook stems from the Bocconi University’s new Bachelor in Government, which was launched in 2015, and is intended for undergraduate students who do not exclude maths from their toolbox. It discusses various concrete applications in political economics, political science, sociology, and demography and explores topics like Grexit, Macron’s success, immigration effects and the Arab Spring.

  calculus for business and social sciences: Fundamentals of Calculus Carla C. Morris, Robert M. Stark, 2015-07-28 Features the techniques, methods, and applications of calculus using real-world examples from business and economics as well as the life and social sciences An introduction to differential and integral calculus, Fundamentals of Calculus presents key topics suited for a variety of readers in fields ranging from entrepreneurship and economics to environmental and social sciences. Practical examples from a variety of subject areas are featured throughout each chapter and step-by-step explanations for the solutions are presented. Specific techniques are also applied to highlight important information in each section, including symbols interspersed throughout to further reader comprehension. In addition, the book illustrates the elements of finite calculus with the varied formulas for power, quotient, and product rules that correlate markedly with traditional calculus. Featuring calculus as the “mathematics of change,” each chapter concludes with a historical notes section. Fundamentals of Calculus chapter coverage includes: Linear Equations and Functions The Derivative Using the Derivative Exponents and Logarithms Differentiation Techniques Integral Calculus Integrations Techniques Functions of Several Variables Series and Summations Applications to Probability Supplemented with online instructional support materials, Fundamentals of Calculus is an ideal textbook for undergraduate students majoring in business, economics, biology, chemistry, and environmental science.
  calculus for business and social sciences: A Mathematical Primer for Social Statistics John Fox, 2021-01-11 A Mathematical Primer for Social Statistics, Second Edition presents mathematics central to learning and understanding statistical methods beyond the introductory level: the basic language of matrices and linear algebra and its visual representation, vector geometry; differential and integral calculus; probability theory; common probability distributions; statistical estimation and inference, including likelihood-based and Bayesian methods. The volume concludes by applying mathematical concepts and operations to a familiar case, linear least-squares regression. The Second Edition pays more attention to visualization, including the elliptical geometry of quadratic forms and its application to statistics. It also covers some new topics, such as an introduction to Markov-Chain Monte Carlo methods, which are important in modern Bayesian statistics. A companion website includes materials that enable readers to use the R statistical computing environment to reproduce and explore computations and visualizations presented in the text. The book is an excellent companion to a math camp or a course designed to provide foundational mathematics needed to understand relatively advanced statistical methods.
  calculus for business and social sciences: Calculus for the Life Sciences James L. Cornette, Ralph A.
