Intermediate Algebra

Tussy and Gustafson's fully integrated learning process is designed to expand students' reasoning abilities and teach them how to read, write, and think mathematically. In this 2nd edition, the concept of function is introduced in Chapter 2 and is stressed throughout the text. Students learn to use function notation, graph functions, and write functions that mathematically model many interesting real-life situations. The authors build the strong mathematical foundation necessary to give students confidence to apply their newly acquired skills in further mathematics courses, at home or on the job.Tussy, Alan S. is the author of 'Intermediate Algebra', published 2003 under ISBN 9780534272807 and ISBN 0534272800.
