KEY BENEFIT: The Bittinger Concepts and Applications Series brings proven pedagogy to a new generation of students, with updates throughout to help todays students learn. Bittinger transitions students from skills-based math to the concepts-oriented math required for college courses, and supports students with quality applications and exercises to help them apply and retain their knowledge. New features such as Translating for Success and Visualizing for Success unlock the way students think, making math accessible to them. KEY TOPICS: Algebraic and Problem Solving; Graphs, Functions, and Linear Equations; Introduction to Graphing; Inequalities and Problem Solving; Polynomials and Polynomial Functions; Rational Expressions, Equations, and Functions; Exponents and Radicals; Quadratic Functions and Equations; Exponential and Logarithmic Functions; Conic Sections; Sequences, Series, and the Binomial Theorem MARKET: For all readers interested in algebra.
This text investigates the core mathematical principles of intermediate algebra by bridging the gap between rote skill acquisition and conceptual understanding. The authors, David J. Ellenbogen and Marvin L. Bittinger, utilize a pedagogical framework designed to transition students from basic arithmetic operations to the abstract reasoning required for higher-level collegiate mathematics. By integrating real-world applications with structured exercises, the text provides a systematic approach to mastering algebraic functions and problem-solving methodologies.
What You Will Find
Educators and students frequently identify this work as a foundational resource for transitioning into college-level mathematics. The text is noted for its clear, structured approach to complex algebraic topics and its emphasis on conceptual mastery over simple memorization.
