This student-focused text addresses individual learning styles through the use of a complete study system that starts with a learning styles inventory and presents targeted learning strategies designed to guide students toward success in this and future college-level courses.
Students who approach math with trepidation will find that Elementary and Intermediate Algebra, Second Edition, builds competence and confidence. The study system, introduced at the outset and used consistently throughout the text, transforms the student experience by applying time-tested strategies to the study of mathematics. Learning strategies dovetail nicely into the overall system and build on individual learning styles by addressing students’ unique strengths. The authors talk to students in their own language and walk them through the concepts, showing students both how to do the math and the reasoning behind it. Tying it all together, the use of the Algebra Pyramid as an overarching theme relates specific chapter topics to the ‘big picture’ of algebra.
• Revised and Added More Exercise Sets!
The section-level exercise sets have been scrutinized and reworked to incorporate more midlevel problems, an improved pairing between odd and even exercises, and a better gradation of exercises that slowly progress from easy to more difficult.
• Learning Strategy Boxes Increased!
These have been improved and increased in number to provide students with even more guidance with an emphasis on individual learning styles.
• Algebra Pyramid Strengthened!
Small versions of the Algebra Pyramid have been added to the Chapter Review and Cumulative Review Exercises to help students distinguish between expression and equality/inequality exercises.
• MML/MXL Coverage Increased!
The number of exercises included in MyMathLab and MathXL has been increased dramatically for an even stronger correlation between the book and the technology that supports it.
