Synopsis
Larson's PRECALCULUS HYBRID, Ninth Edition, delivers the same sound, consistently structured explanations and exercises of mathematical concepts as his market-leading hardcover text, PRECALCULUS, Ninth Edition, combined with a briefer paperback format. The HYBRID demonstrates Larson's commitment to revolutionizing the way instructors teach and students learn material by moving all the end-of-section exercises from the text online as well as incorporating more real-world applications, ongoing review, and innovative technology. "How Do You See It?" exercises give students practice applying the concepts, and new "Summarize" features, "Checkpoint" problems, and a Companion Website reinforce understanding of the skill sets to help students better prepare for tests.
