Publisher's Synopsis
Books a la Carte are unbound, three-hole-punch versions of the textbook. This lower cost option is easy to transport and comes with same access code or media that would be packaged with the bound book.
The Sullivan/Struve/Mazzarella Algebra program is designed to motivate students to "do the math"- at home or in the lab-and supports a variety of learning environments. The text is known for its two-column example format that provides annotations to the left of the algebra. These annotations explain what the authors are about to do in each step (instead of what was just done), just as an instructor would do. KEY TOPICS: Operations on Real Numbers and Algebraic Expressions; Linear Equations and Inequalities in One Variable; Introduction to Graphing and Linear Equations in Two Variables; Systems of Linear Equations and Inequalities; Exponents and Polynomials; Factoring Polynomials; Rational Expressions and Equations; Graphs, Relations, and Functions; Radicals and Rational Exponents; Quadratic Equations and Functions; Exponential and Logarithmic Functions; Conics; Sequences, Series, and the Binomial Theorem; Synthetic Division; Geometry Review; More on Systems of Linear Equations; Table of Square Roots MARKET: For all readers interested in elementary and intermediate algebra. This Package Contains: Elementary & Intermediate Algebra, Third Edition, (a la Carte edition) with MyMathLab/MyStatLab Student Access Kit
