Introductory and Intermediate Algebra

The Miller/O'Neill/Hyde author team continues to offer an enlightened approach grounded in the fundamentals of classroom experience in Intermediate Algebra 3e. The practice of many instructors in the classroom is to present examples and have their students solve similar problems. This is realized through the Skill Practice Exercises that directly follow the examples in the textbook. Throughout the text, the authors have integrated many Study Tips and Avoiding Mistakes hints, which are reflective of the comments and instruction presented to students in the classroom. In this way, the text communicates to students the very points their instructors are likely to make during lecture, and this helps to reinforce the concepts and provide instruction that leads students to mastery and success. The authors included in this edition Problem-Recognition Exercises, that many instructors will likely identify to be similar to worksheets they have personally developed for distribution to students. The intent of the Problem-Recognition exercises is to help students overcome what is sometimes a natural inclination toward applying problem-solving algorithms that may not always be appropriate. In addition, the exercise sets have been revised to include even more core exercises than were present in the previous edition. This permits instructors to choose from a wealth of problems, allowing ample opportunity for students to practice what they learn in lecture to hone their skills and develop the knowledge they need to make a successful transition into College Algebra. In this way, the book perfectly complements any learning platform, whether traditional lecture or distance-learning; its instruction is so reflective of what comes from lecture, that students will feel as comfortable outside of class as they do inside class with their instructor. For even more support, students have access to a wealth of supplements, including McGraw-Hill’s online homework management system, MathZone.

Intermediate Algebra (Hardcover)

Steven's Hollow is the last place Kathleen Mitchell wants to be. She vowed years ago to never set foot there again, and she is not returning now by choice. She's been summoned by a lawyer who discovered a problem with her long-ago divorce. Life's been good for Kathleen...until now. But everything seems to be falling apart. What's going on? Is she divorced, or still married? There's a secret she's been harboring in her heart for years. Her teenage son knows nothing about his biological father...not even his name. And the ex-husband Kathleen hasn't seen since before their divorce doesn't know he has a son...a son whose birth she kept secret from him. Just when she thinks things can't possibly get worse, they do. The first person Kathleen sees when she arrives at Steven's Hollow is the man she thought she'd never see again: Rob McKenzie, once the love of her life. They react to each other with bitterness and anger, at first...but the spark is still there. Rob McKenzie is the man Kathleen never forgot. Kathleen Mitchell is the woman Rob never got over. After fourteen years apart, can they overcome the past and start again?

The Hollow

Instructors who have firsthand experience with students of developmental mathematics have crafted the exercise sets with the idea of infusing review. In each set, instructors will find a set of exercises that help students to review concepts previously learned for better retention.
