Algebra: A Combined Approach, 2nd edition, fits both the traditional, one-semester, elementary algebra course, and the one-semester intermediate algebra course but combined into one textbook. The prerequisite is Basic Mathematics, taken in college or in high school.
Every section has been written so that it can be discussed in a single class session. The clean layout and the authors conversational style make it easy for students to read, and important information such as definitions and properties are highlighted so that they can easily be located and referenced by students.
Unique technology embedded in each exercise set allows students with a smart phone or other internet-connected mobile device to view our video tutorials without being tied to a computer.
A list of fill-in-the-blank sentences appears at the beginning of each exercise set to help students better comprehend and verbalize concepts.
Simple writing exercises for students to answer after reading each section increases their understanding of key concepts.
A list of important vocabulary appears at the beginning of each section to help students prepare for new concepts. These words can also be found in blue italics within the sections.
A discussion of important study skills appearing in each chapter anticipates students' needs as they progress through the course.
Complete sentences that include common mistakes appear in each exercise set to help students identify errors and aid their comprehension of the concepts presented in that section.
A review appears in the middle of each chapter for students to practice key skills, check progress, and address difficulties.
Problems at the end of each chapter provide students with a comprehensive review of each chapter's concepts.
