www.downloadslide.net Preface FROM THE AUTHOR I would like to thank the many students and faculty that have used my books over the years You have provided me with excellent feedback that has assisted me in writing a better, more student-focused book in each edition Your comments are always taken seriously, and I have adjusted my focus on each revision to satisfy your needs Understandable Explanations I originally undertook the task of writing my own book for the elementary and intermediate algebra course so I could explain mathematical concepts to students in language they would understand Most books claim to this, but my experience with a variety of texts had proven otherwise What students and faculty will find in my book are short, precise explanations of terms and concepts that are written in understandable language For example, when I introduce the Commutative Property of Addition, I make the concrete analogy that “the price of a hamburger plus a Coke is the same as the price of a Coke plus a hamburger,” a mathematical fact in their daily lives that students can readily grasp Math doesn’t need to remain a mystery to students, and students reading my book will find other analogies like this one that connect abstractions to everyday experiences Detailed Examples Keyed to Exercises My experience as a teacher has taught me two things about examples: they need to be detailed, and they need to help students their homework As a result, users of my book will find abundant examples with every step carefully laid out and explained where necessary so that students can follow along in class if the instructor is demonstrating an example on the board Students will also be able to read them on their own later when they’re ready to the exercise sets I have also included a double cross-referencing system between my examples and exercise sets so that, no matter which one students start with, they’ll see the connection to the other All examples in this edition refer to specific exercises by ending with a phrase such as “Now Exercises 11–18” so that students will have the opportunity for immediate practice of that concept If students work an exercise and find they are stumped on how to finish it, they’ll see that for that group of exercises they’re directed to a specific example to follow as a model Either way, students will find my book’s examples give them the guidance they need to succeed in the course vi dug84356_fm.indd vi 10/28/10 7:02 PM www.downloadslide.net Preface vii Varied Exercises and Applications A third goal of mine in writing this book was to give students more variety in the kinds of exercises they perform than I found in other books Students won’t find an intimidating page of endless drills in my book, but instead will see exercises in manageable groups with specific goals They will also be able to augment their math proficiency using different formats (true/false, written response, multiple-choice) and different methods (discussion, collaboration, calculators) Not only is there an abundance of skill-building exercises, I have also researched a wide variety of realistic applications using real data so that those “dreaded word problems” will be seen as a useful and practical extension of what students have learned Finally, every chapter ends with critical thinking exercises that go beyond numerical computation and call on students to employ their intuitive problem-solving skills to find the answers to mathematical puzzles in fun and innovative ways With all of these resources to choose from, I am sure that instructors will be comfortable adapting my book to fit their course, and that students will appreciate having a text written for their level and to stimulate their interest Listening to Student and Instructor Concerns McGraw-Hill has given me a wonderful resource for making my textbook more responsive to the immediate concerns of students and faculty In addition to sending my manuscript out for review by instructors at many different colleges, several times a year McGraw-Hill holds symposia and focus groups with math instructors where the emphasis is not on selling products but instead on the publisher listening to the needs of faculty and their students These encounters have provided me with a wealth of ideas on how to improve my chapter organization, make the page layout of my books more readable, and fine-tune exercises in every chapter Consequently, students and faculty will feel comfortable using my book because it incorporates their specific suggestions and anticipates their needs These events have particularly helped me in the shaping of the fourth edition Improvements in the Fourth Edition OVERALL • All Warm-Up exercise sets have been
