Book excerpt: College Algebra provides a comprehensive exploration of algebraic principles and meets scope and sequence requirements for a typical introductory algebra course. The modular approach and richness of content ensure that the book meets the needs of a variety of courses. College Algebra offers a wealth of examples with detailed, conceptual explanations, building a strong foundation in the material before asking students to apply what they've learned. Coverage and Scope In determining the concepts, skills, and topics to cover, we engaged dozens of highly experienced instructors with a range of student audiences. The resulting scope and sequence proceeds logically while allowing for a significant amount of flexibility in instruction. Chapters 1 and 2 provide both a review and foundation for study of Functions that begins in Chapter 3. The authors recognize that while some institutions may find this material a prerequisite, other institutions have told us that they have a cohort that need the prerequisite skills built into the course. Chapter 1: Prerequisites Chapter 2: Equations and Inequalities Chapters 3-6: The Algebraic Functions Chapter 3: Functions Chapter 4: Linear Functions Chapter 5: Polynomial and Rational Functions Chapter 6: Exponential and Logarithm Functions Chapters 7-9: Further Study in College Algebra Chapter 7: Systems of Equations and Inequalities Chapter 8: Analytic Geometry Chapter 9: Sequences, Probability and Counting Theory

Download or read book Understanding College Algebra written by Eric Kuennen and published by . This book was released on 2018-08-03 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: College Algebra actually makes sense and is something that you can figure out and understand why it works. This text focuses on a conceptual understanding of the big ideas in algebraic thinking, engaging the student in authentic problem solving and exploring the logical reasoning that underlies the various techniques and procedures in college algebra. An Inquiry-based Approach. Each section starts with a Class Activity to engage students in actually doing mathematics. Doing math is not just calculating or following a procedure. Doing math is figuring things out: investigating, making and testing conjectures, making arguments, and communicating your reasoning to others. The class activities are designed to highlight big algebraic ideas and spark a discussion of algebraic habits of mind, as well as students' alternate conceptions that lead to common algebra mistakes. Students are asked to analyze solutions, explore representations, explain why valid methods for simplifying expressions or solving equations work, and explain why invalid methods do not work. This book is intended to be read. Often math textbooks do not end up being read, but instead are used merely as a reference for their step-by-step procedures. Each section of this text has a "Read and Study" section that discusses the mathematics raised by the Class Activity and focuses on the mathematical reasoning and proof needed to nurture longer-lasting understanding of the content. This is meant to be read slowly and carefully, with pencil in hand. We pose questions that you should think about and answer before reading on. When we do work out an example, we do so to discuss the big ideas and illustrate our reasoning, not with the intention of providing you with a model to copy. Exercises vs. Problems. In the homework, we distinguish between "exercises" and "problems." Exercises are more routine, intended to give you more practice thinking about the big concepts. In contrast, the "problems" are intended to be problematic, to take time to explore, develop and make connections, and often to extend your reasoning to develop new ideas. We do not include "answers" to these homework exercises and problems. Why struggle and persevere to figure something out and understand it when you can just look it up? Mathematics is not about getting the right answer; it's about figuring things out. It's about logical reasoning and being able to justify that what you claim is true. This doesn't mean that you are on your own. We will do our best in the Read and Study sections to discuss the big ideas, offer explanations, and show you some good examples of problem solving and making mathematical arguments.

This book was released on 2010-02-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Barnett/Ziegler/Byleen/Sobecki College Algebra series is designed to give students a solid grounding in pre-calculus topics in a user-friendly manner. The series emphasizes computational skills, ideas, and problem solving rather than theory. Explore/Discuss boxes integrated throughout each text encourage students to think critically about mathematical concepts. All worked examples are followed by Matched Problems that reinforce the concepts being taught. New to these editions, Technology Connections illustrate how concepts that were previously explained in an algebraic context may also be solved using a graphing calculator. Students are always shown the underlying algebraic methods first so that they do not become calculator-dependent. In addition, each text in the series contains an abundance of exercises - including numerous calculator-based and reasoning and writing exercises - and a wide variety of real-world applications illustrating how math is useful.
