Download or read book College Algebra written by Jay Abramson and published by . This book was released on 2018-01-07 with total page 892 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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

Book excerpt: Algebra & Geometry: An Introduction to University Mathematics provides a bridge between high school and undergraduate mathematics courses on algebra and geometry. The author shows students how mathematics is more than a collection of methods by presenting important ideas and their historical origins throughout the text. He incorporates a hands-on approach to proofs and connects algebra and geometry to various applications. The text focuses on linear equations, polynomial equations, and quadratic forms. The first several chapters cover foundational topics, including the importance of proofs and properties commonly encountered when studying algebra. The remaining chapters form the mathematical core of the book. These chapters explain the solution of different kinds of algebraic equations, the nature of the solutions, and the interplay between geometry and algebra

Download or read book The Math Myth written by Andrew Hacker and published by New Press, The. This book was released on 2010-05-25 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times–bestselling author looks at mathematics education in America—when it’s worthwhile, and when it’s not. Why do we inflict a full menu of mathematics—algebra, geometry, trigonometry, even calculus—on all young Americans, regardless of their interests or aptitudes? While Andrew Hacker has been a professor of mathematics himself, and extols the glories of the subject, he also questions some widely held assumptions in this thought-provoking and practical-minded book. Does advanced math really broaden our minds? Is mastery of azimuths and asymptotes needed for success in most jobs? Should the entire Common Core syllabus be required of every student? Hacker worries that our nation’s current frenzied emphasis on STEM is diverting attention from other pursuits and even subverting the spirit of the country. Here, he shows how mandating math for everyone prevents other talents from being developed and acts as an irrational barrier to graduation and careers. He proposes alternatives, including teaching facility with figures, quantitative reasoning, and understanding statistics. Expanding upon the author’s viral New York Times op-ed, The Math Myth is sure to spark a heated and needed national conversation—not just about mathematics but about the kind of people and society we want to be. “Hacker’s accessible arguments offer plenty to think about and should serve as a clarion call to students, parents, and educators who decry the one-size-fits-all approach to schooling.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New University Algebra: A Theoretical and Practical Colleges Treatise Containing Many New and Original Methods and Applications for Colleges and High Schools In the preparation of the New University Algebra, care has been taken to preserve every feature of the original work, on which rested, in any degree, its claims to superiority. The aim has been to make that which was good, decidedly better. Hence the changes that have been made, consist, for the most part, in more apt arrangement, in large additions of original matter, and in presenting the whole in more attractive form. The treatise, as now submitted to the public, is, indeed, far more complete than the former, not only in the range of topics, but also in general discussions and practical applications. In many parts the methods of investigation are essentially different, - the object being, in some instances, to secure simplicity in logical arrangement, and in others, to establish principles and rules by more general and rigorous demonstrations. The articles on Inequalities, Differential Method of Series, and Interpolation, which, in the old treatise, appear as an appendix, have been elaborated, and made to take their appropriate place in the body of the work. The section on Radical Quantities is quite full, embracing the more important properties of Imaginary Quantities and Quadratic Surds, besides a complete logical development of the Theory of Exponents. As, in the authors New Elementary Algebra, the Binomial Theorem has been fully investigated with reference to integral exponents, it has been deemed unnecessary to repeat here the particular demonstration. Accordingly, the whole subject is deferred till the section on Series is reached, where a general demonstration of this theorem is given in a concise way, and a full variety of applications added. The whole subject, as presented in this connection, with the accompanying illustrations, can not fail to interest the lovers of Algebra.
