Riassunto

The first book of the Mathematics in Action series, Prealgebra Problem Solving, Third Edition, illustrates how mathematics arises naturally from everyday situations through updated and revised real-life activities and the accompanying practice exercises. Along with the activities and the exercises within the text, MathXL^® and MyMathLab^® have been enhanced to create a better overall learning experience for the reader. Technology integrated throughout the text helps readers interpret real-life data algebraically, numerically, symbolically, and graphically. The active style of this book develops readers’ mathematical literacy and builds a solid foundation for future study in mathematics and other disciplines.

 

KEY TOPICS: Whole Numbers; Variables and Problem Solving; Problem Solving with Integers; Problem Solving with Fractions; Problem Solving with Mixed Numbers and Decimals; Problem Solving with Ratios, Proportions, and Percents; Problem Solving with Geometry; Problem Solving with Mathematical Models

 

MARKET: For all readers interested in algebra.

Informazioni sull?autore

The Consortium for Foundation Mathematics is a team of fourteen co-authors, primarily from the State University of New York and the City University of New York systems. Using the AMATYC Crossroads standards, the team developed an activity-based approach to mathematics in an effort to reach the large population of college students who, for whatever reason, have not yet succeeded in learning mathematics.
