Good Pre-Calc/Calc book?

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>I really want to find a decent pre-calc and calc book with problems in it and that <em>gasp</em> ACTUALLY shows you how to get the answers! Strange I know, since every single textbook I've seen just gives you an answer and you're sitting there wondering "... Where did this come from?"</p>

<p>Anyone have any good recommendations?</p>

<p>Our School uses:
"Calculus: With Early Transcendental Functions"
by Larson and Hostetler. </p>

<p>The odd (or even?) problems have a solutions manual that shows you how you should work each problem.</p>
