Functioning in the Real World contains the course material that grew out of the mathematical Modeling/Precalculus Reform Project, which received major funding from NSF. This text seeks to prepare and motivate students for mastering the new generation of calculus courses, and offers a dramatically different alternative to standard Precalculus and College Algebra and Trigonometry texts. The goal of the text is to emphasize the qualitative, geometric and computational aspects of mathematics, within a framework of mathematical modeling at a level appropriate to precalculus students. It capitalizes on the fact that most students are more interested in applications of mathematics than in theory. Consequently, applications drive all the mathematical development, making the topics more accessible to students who may not have experienced success in mathematics.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
