The text combines appropriate use of technology with standard "paper and pencil" analytic techniques to provide a balanced approach to the study and implementation of precalculus. Technology is fully integrated, rather than just added. The text ecourages grapical, numerical, and algebraic modeling of functions as well as problem solving, conceptual understanding, and facility with technology. Primary objectives are to help students to truly understand the fundamental concepts of algebra,trigonometry, and analytic geometry ; to foreshadow important ideas of calculus ; and to show how algebra and trigonometry can be used to model real-life problems. - Preface
