Intermediate Algebra with Applications

I am a high school math teacher and use this book in the class room for Algebra II. I like the way the Aufmann book is organized for the student as well as the teacher. There is not a lot of fluff, just solid examples. Each example is well explained with the highlighted math to go with them. There are windows of explaination for graphing calculator use, but the book is not overly reliant on them. Each chapter summary includes key vocabulary and definitions with examples so the student does not have to go hunting during study. The chapter summary also includes essential rules and procedures with examples that were covered in the chapter. If your a project based teacher, there are group projects. I know that the 7th edition now has more computer/dvd products available. Our school district cannot change books as rapidly as text book companies would like to sell books. This program is a solid Intermediate Algebra program that covers all areas that a student needs for College prep.

Fabulous, easy to use book

The material in the book is very easy to understand. The chapter test all come with answers in the back of the book so you can check your own work.

This is a great book. Algebra made easy with this book.

Hello. I am an 11th grader in high school and for my algebra II class we are using this book. It's too bad it's not available (I could not buy it) but the book is great. I have understood all the terms used in algebra and I can solve any problem on the book. It has great examples and good definitions. If you are a teacher in look for the book to give a class, buy it... it is great! If you are a student, just like me, and you want to buy it, you won't regret paying what is costs. Happy studing fellow students! Temple of Souls.
