Description

Written in a relaxed and conversational style, this book addresses the need for a complete and mathematically sound presentation of algebra at the college level. It is appropriate for a core curriculum college algebra course, and also contains all the material necessary to prepare students for more advanced classes such as calculus and statistics.

This book includes Mathematica technology notes and exercises, as well as an Appendix on the elementary use of the software. These resources were written using Mathematica 5.2 but are also compatible with version 6. The book can also be purchased as a bundle from the publisher with their corresponding courseware product.
