College Algebra Essentials (2nd Edition)

Gets Them Engaged. Keeps Them Engaged. In a Shorter Text! Blitzer's philosophy: present the full scope of mathematics, while always (1) engaging the reader by opening their minds to learning (2) keeping the reader engaged on every page (3) explaining ideas directly, simply, and clearly so they don't get "lost" when studying and reviewing.

Prerequisites: Fundamental Concepts of Algebra; Equations and Inequalities; Functions and Graphs; Polynomial and Rational Functions; Exponential and Logarithmic Functions; Systems of Equations and Inequalities.
