Intermediate Algebra Skills Practice Workbook with Answers
Chris McMullen, Ph.D.
Practice a variety of intermediate algebra skills.Bridge the gap between introductory algebra and precalculus. An approach that works
Each section begins with a concise explanation of the relevant concepts using clear language.Fully solved examples help to serve as a guide for how to solve the problems.The exercises at the end of each section help to build fluency. The paperback edition includes space for working out the solutions. Build confidence
The answer to every problem is included.When you get the right answer, this helps to build confidence.If you get an answer wrong, study your solution, rework the problem, or review the examples so that you can learn from your mistake.Many of the answers include one of the following: notes, checks (to show you that the answers work), or full solutions.
Topics include: functions radicals complex numbers quadratics systems polynomials graphs (including conic sections) inequalities
