SynopsisFor briefer traditional courses in elementary differential equations that science, engineering, and mathematics students take following calculus. The Sixth Edition of this widely adopted book remains the same classic differential equations text it's always been, but has been polished and sharpened to serve both instructors and students even more effectively.Edwards and Penney teach students to first solve those differential equations that have the most frequent and interesting applications. Precise and clear-cut statements of fundamental existence and uniqueness theorems allow understanding of their role in this subject. A strong numerical approach emphasizes that the effective and reliable use of numerical methods often requires preliminary analysis using standard elementary techniques., This book gives readers the means to solve differential equations that enjoy the most frequent & interesting applications. It illustrates the standard elementary techniques of solving differential equations, & presents precise & clear-cut statements of the fundamental existence & uniqueness theorems.
