College algebra : concepts & contexts

This article bridges the distance among conventional and reform ways to algebra encouraging scholars to work out arithmetic in context. It provides fewer themes in larger intensity, prioritizing information research as a origin for mathematical modeling, and emphasizing the verbal, numerical, graphical and symbolic representations of mathematical suggestions in addition to connecting arithmetic to actual existence events drawn from the scholars' majors.

Vertiefung Mathematik Primarstufe — Arithmetik/Zahlentheorie

Aufbauend auf ihrem Band „Einführung Mathematik Primarstufe – Arithmetik“ vertiefen die Autoren elementares mathematisches Hintergrundwissen zur Arithmetik/Zahlentheorie vor allem für Lehramtsstudierende der Primarstufe. Themen des Buches sind spannende zahlentheoretische Problemstellungen als Einstieg, Teiler/Vielfache/Reste, Primzahlen unter vielen faszinierenden Aspekten und speziell als Bausteine der natürlichen Zahlen, größter gemeinsamer Teiler und kleinstes gemeinsames Vielfaches, Teilbarkeitsregeln im Dezimalsystem und in anderen Stellenwertsystemen, Dezimalbrüche, Restklassen/algebraische Strukturen sowie praktische Anwendungen (Prüfziffernverfahren und ihre Sicherheit).

General Orthogonal Polynomials

During this treatise, the authors current the final thought of orthogonal polynomials at the advanced aircraft and a number of other of its purposes. The assumptions at the degree of orthogonality are basic, the one restrict is that it has compact help at the complicated airplane. within the improvement of the idea the most emphasis is on asymptotic habit and the distribution of zeros.
