Differential Equations Workbook For Dummies

Tips, tricks and lots of practice to help students get a handle on these complex calculus problemsPre-calculus classes prepare students for studies in calculus and other advanced Differential equations are essential in physics, economics, engineering, and many other scientific and technical disciplines. This new Dummies Workbook is a hands-on companion for students grappling with differential equations in classes such as calculus, AP calculus, physics, and engineering. It features numerous practice exercises and clear, concise examples to help students improve their problem-solving skills and score better in science, math, and standardized tests. This practice-oriented workbook covers such challenging topics as first-order and second-order differential equations, constant coefficients, undetermined coefficients, variation of parameters, initial-value problems, the Laplace transform, and more.

Steven Holzner, PhD, served on the faculty of Cornell University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology.? He is an award-winning author who has written Physics For Dummies, Quantum Physics For Dummies, and more.
