This worktext investigates the foundational principles of intermediate algebra through a structured, practice-oriented pedagogical framework. The author, Tony G. Wright, utilizes a modular approach designed to bridge the gap between elementary algebraic concepts and more advanced mathematical study. By emphasizing repetitive problem-solving and systematic skill acquisition, the text provides a comprehensive curriculum for students transitioning into college-level mathematics.

The subject matter points to a standard, functional academic resource intended for classroom instruction or self-directed remedial study. Its structure suggests a focus on procedural mastery rather than theoretical exploration, typical of mid-1980s educational materials in the field of mathematics.
