HP-48 G/GX graphing calculator technology can be used to supplement courses in engineering math sequence. This text is intended to help instructors and students incorporate the use of powerful graphing calculators as an interactive learning tool. It includes calculator investigations that reinforce key topics, e.g., the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, Eigenvalues, and Linear Systems of Differential Equations. Getting-started sections offer students a friendly introduction to the keyboard, data entry, RPN, and memory management.

Use HP-48 G/GX graphing calculator technology to supplement each of the courses in the engineering math sequence. Intended to help instructors and students incorporate the use of powerful graphing calculators as an interactive learning tool. Includes calculator investigations that reinforce key topics, e.g., the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, Eigenvalues, and Linear Systems of Differential Equations. Getting-started sections offer students a friendly introduction to the keyboard, data entry, RPN, and memory management (Chapter 1). Surveys the main topics of the standard one or two semester courses in these subject areas. May be used as a supplements with any textbook.

The computer disk contains a collection of special-purpose HP-48G/GX calculator programs contained in the book. "To be used in conjunction with the HP F1201A Serial Interface Kit (DOS/Windows), which contains the connector and necessary software to download these programs"--Disk label.

This supplementary text for the standard calculus course focuses on how the HP-28S and the HP-48SX (2 graphing supercalculators) will aid in improving students' understanding of calculus. The calculators are capable of rapid production of graphics and calculations so classes that have access to the machines will save valuable time on graphing and calculations. With supercalculators such as the HP-28S and the HP-48SX, students can focus on true Calculus concepts rather than on computational details.
