Get the background you need and discover the usefulness of mathematics in analyzing and solving problems with FINITE MATHEMATICS, 8th Edition. The author clearly explains concepts, and the computations demonstrate enough detail to allow you to follow and learn steps in the problem-solving process. Hundreds of examples and exercises, many based on real-world data, illustrate the practical applications of mathematical concepts. The book also includes technology guidelines to help you successfully use graphing calculators and Microsoft Excel to solve selected exercises.

Sample questions asked in the 8th edition of Finite Mathematics:
Data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics indicate that, for Americans under the age of 35, 40.6% almost always pay off the balance of their credit card bills, 24.1% sometimes pay off the balance, and 35.4% hardly ever pay off the balance.
In Exercise, the amount (future value) of an ordinary annuity is given. Find the periodic payments. A = $14,500, and the annuity earns 6% compounded monthly for 10 years.
Baylor University purchased a financial systems software package and converted all budget identification numbers to a 15-character identification code. Each character in the identification code can be any one of the 26 letters of the alphabet or any one of the digits 0 through 9. (a) How many different budget numbers are possible in this system? (b) If the Budget Office assigns 1 million budget numbers each second, 24 hours a day for every day in the year, how long will it take to use up all the budget numbers?
(See Example 8) Two people are randomly selected from a group of 4 men and 4 women. The random variable X is the number of men selected. Find the probability distribution for X and its graph.
A linear programming problem seeks to maximize z = Ax+ By, subject to 5 x + 2 y ? 240 2 x+ 3 y ? 140 x ? 0, y ? 0 0 Find the range of slopes of the objective function z = Ax + By so that the maximum occurs at (48, 0).
Find the feasible regions of the systems of inequalities in Exercise. Determine the corners of each feasible region. 2 x + y ? 8 10 x + y ? 20 x ? 0, y ? 0
