This text sets a new standard for college algebra textbooks. Modeling, functions, data analysis, and regression, along with fully integrated graphing technology, are presented side-by-side with algebraic and numeric techniques. Graphing calculator technology is used at each point in the text where concepts are enhanced by technology. Students benefit from seeing the material presented in a variety of ways and learn by investigating and discovering mathematics concepts with their colleagues. The unique situational art, color-coded graphs, graphing calculator screen shots and instruction, and numerous timely, real-data citations in the examples and exercises combine to help students fully understand this subject. Problem sets emphasize critical thinking and written communication skills while incorporating real data in the exercises.
