Chapter Openers include real life application and are enhanced with the WWW address www. Applications have been extensively researched to make them more up-to-date and realistic. Not only are many of exercises new to this edition, but many are drawn from the fields of business and economics, life and physical sciences, social sciences, and areas of general interest such as sports and daily life. To encourage students to "see mathematics" around them every day, many applications are enhanced by graphs and drawings similar to those found in today's newspapers and magazines.
Margin Problems are provided for immediate practice of concepts. Margin color has been improved for ease of student writing.
Art program and color pallette have been expanded and improved to create a "user-friendly" book. Color in the graphical art is used pedagogically and precisely to help the student visualize the mathematics. Exercise Sets are grouped by objectives and include reference codes. Number of exercises have been increased. Calculator Spotlight feature optional — includes information and tips on the scientific calculator as appropriate.
Math Study Skills feature appears in every chapter and includes helpful study guides and support for student success.
Summary and Review now in a two-column format, the Summary and Review has been expanded to provide in-depth coverage of every chapter. Appearing at the chapter's end, the Summary and Review is keyed to objectives in the text and provides an extensive set of review exercises along with a list of important formulas and properties covered in that chapter.
Reference codes beside each exercise allow the student to easily return to the objective being reviewed. Cumulative Reviews after each chapter enhance student retention and skill building. The MathMax Multimedia CD for Introductory Algebra provides an active environment using graphics, animations, and audio narration to build on some of the unique and proven features of the MathMax series.
Skill Review , in nearly every section of the text and eText, reviews a previously presented skill at the objective level where it is key to learning the new material. Interactive Animations, available in MyLab Math, allow students to examine visual representations of concepts through both guided and open-ended exploration to further solidify their understanding of these concepts.
Chapter Opener applications with graphics in the text use current data and applications to present the math in context. These applications are linked to additional examples and exercises in the text and MyLab Math course to help students model, visualize, and learn the math.
Check Your Understanding with Reading Check and Concept Check exercises at the beginning of each section exercise set gives students the opportunity to assess their grasp of the skills and concepts before they move on to the homework. Student Activities begin with real-world data and guide students to examine a key concept in each chapter, while analyzing the data and connecting other concepts. Interactive exercises in MyLab Math help build problem-solving skills and foster conceptual understanding.
For the 8 th Edition , increased coverage of skill-building, conceptual and applications exercises, and new problem types provide even more flexibility when creating homework.
