Synopsis

With a strong emphasis on problem solving, this book focuses on preparation for intermediate algebra. The authors introduce a five-step process for solving problems and use this throughout to solve real-world applications. Skill maintenance exercises reinforce skills from earlier chapters, while synthesis exercises encourage students to synthesize material from several sections and develop their critical thinking skills. New to this edition are writing-to-learn exercises which ask students to think through mathematical situations, synthesize concepts and verbalize ideas. There are also technology connection boxes which help with the visualization of concepts and foster intuitive and discovery learning.
