Essential Maths and Stats for Higher Education

Essential Maths and Stats provides a comprehensive overview of tertiary level mathematics and statistics and is the only definitive New Zealand text for mathematics and statistics at entry level. It is also an excellent 'extension' text for secondary school students. Divided into six key sections Numerical Mathematics, Algebra (1 and 2), Trigonometry, Calculus and Statistics the text includes: differential equations, integration techniques, networks, differential equations, vectors, determinants, matrices, linear programming, probability distributions, hypothesis testing, correlation, regression, chi-squared tests and ANOVA. The text provides full explanations, worked examples and a wide variety of graded exercises (with solutions) and is structured so that readers can dip in and out and refer to relevant sections on a need-to-know basis.
