The cornerstone of ELEMENTARY LINEAR ALGEBRA is the authors' clear, careful, and concise presentation of material--written so that readers can fully understand how mathematics works. This program balances theory with examples, applications, and geometric intuition for a complete, step-by-step learning system.
Prealgebra and Introductory Algebra: An Applied Approach
As in previous editions, the focus in PREALGEBRA & INTRODUCTORY ALGEBRA remains on the Aufmann Interactive Method (AIM). Students are encouraged to be active participants in the classroom and in their own studies as they work through the How To examples and the paired Examples and You Try It problems.
Algebra can be like a foreign language, but INTERMEDIATE ALGEBRA, 5E, gives you the tools and practice you need to fully understand the language of algebra and the "why" behind problem solving. Using Strategy and Why explanations in worked examples and a six-step problem solving strategy, INTERMEDIATE ALGEBRA, 5E, will guide you through an integrated learning process that will expand your reasoning abilities as it teaches you how to read, write, and think mathematically.
Algebra Readiness Made Easy, Grade 3,4,5: An Essential Part of Every Math Curriculum
This Algebra Readiness series makes meeting this mandate easy and fun, even in the younger grades. Each book features dozens of reproducibles that give students practice in different problem-solving strategies and algebraic concepts. Students learn to identify variables, solve for the values of unknowns, identify and continue patterns, use logical reasoning, and so much more. Includes 10 full-color transparencies with problem-solving steps and word problems, perfect for whole-class learning.
By combining algebraic and graphical approaches with practical business and personal finance applications, South-Western's FINANCIAL ALGEBRA, motivates high school students to explore algebraic thinking patterns and functions in a financial context. FINANCIAL ALGEBRA will help your students achieve success by offering an applications based learning approach incorporating Algebra I, Algebra II, and Geometry topics.
