Description

This fifth edition of Intermediate Algebra for College Students maintains our objective of providing a textbook designed for use by the student. We have adopted an informal, supportive style to encourage the student to read the book and to develop confidence under its guidance. We introduce concepts first by example with accompanying diagrams and illustrations that bolster the "reasonableness" of the resulting rules. We immediately reinforce every new mathematical technique or result with fully worked-out examples and captions for clarification. After each example, the student is presented with the opportunity to tackle a parallel problem, called a Progress Check, with the answer following it in the text.
