"This concise, readable, college-level text treats basic abstract algebra in remarkable depth and detail. An antidote to the usual surveys of structure, the book presents group theory, Galois theory, and classical ideal theory in a framework emphasizing proof of important theorem"--Back cover.

Designed for high school students and teachers with an interest in mathematical problem-solving, this stimulating collection includes more than 300 problems that are "off the beaten path" - i.e., problems that give a new twist to familiar topics that introduce unfamiliar topics. With few exceptions, their solution requires little more than some knowledge of elementary algebra, though a dash of ingenuity may help. Readers will find here thought-provoking...

Understand how algebra is relevant to almost every aspect of your daily life, and become skilled at solving a variety of algebraic problems.

This video demonstrates how to use the properties of equalities to evaluate expressions. we will begin by combing like terms to solve real world problems. In this video we will solve the question: How much do my friends and I need to earn in order to attend a concert?

Solve for 'X' with this practical and easy guide to everything algebra A solid understanding of algebra is the key to unlocking other areas of math and science that rely on the concepts and skills that happen in a foundational Algebra class.

This lesson focuses on finding the mean, median, mode, and range and using them to compare two sets of data. Students read data presented in circle and bar graphs, tables, and lists, and use the data to find the median, mean, mode, and range. They then compare these measures of central tendency and range for two sets of real-world data.

This lesson focuses on linear functions and their graphs in real-world situations. Students begin by identifying graphs of linear functions and and relating the equation form y = mx + b with the slope and y-intercept. Students then solve a wide variety of real-world applications that involve the equation of a linear function, linear graphs, and particular x- and y-values of a function.

This lesson explores the Cartesian coordinate system. Students begin by naming the location of points with an ordered pair and plotting points. They see and apply the formula for finding the midpoint of a segment using the coordinates of its two endpoints. Students also learn the equation of a vertical and horizontal lines, and how its corresponding inequality is graphed as a shaded region. The lesson concludes with identifying graphs of the intersection...
