Description
- Exercise sets are designed to test student comprehension by incorporating the algebraic skills covered in the Skills Check with the application problems they will encounter in the real world.
- Skills Check problems precede the exercise sets, allowing students to quickly check if they have read and understood all the concepts needed to complete their homework.
- Applications often draw on real data to prepare students to solve problems in their future courses and careers.
- The Algebra Toolbox at the beginning of every chapter provides a “just in time” review of the algebra needed to learn upcoming material. Each Algebra Toolbox begins with a list of Key Concepts, just like the sections in the book, to make this tool even more useful for students.
- Chapter openers begin with a brief application that shows how the upcoming material relates to the real world. A small grid lists a few of the applications that students will be seeing in each section, to motivate them to read the text.
