Intermediate Algebra: A Text/Workbook, Second Edition focuses on the principles, operations, and approaches involved in intermediate algebra. The publication first takes a look at basic properties and definitions, first-degree equations and inequalities, and exponents and polynomials. Discussions focus on properties of exponents, polynomials, sums, and differences, multiplication of polynomials, inequalities involving absolute value, word problems, first-degree inequalities, real numbers, opposites, reciprocals, and absolute value, and addition and subtraction of real numbers. The text then examines rational expressions, quadratic equations, and rational expressions and roots. Topics include completing the square, quadratic formula, multiplication and division of radical expressions, equations with radicals, basic properties and reducing to lowest terms, and addition and subtraction of rational expression. The book takes a look at logarithms, relations and functions, conic sections, and systems of linear equations, including introduction to determinants, systems of linear equations in three variables, ellipses and hyperbolas, nonlinear systems, function notation, inverse of a function, and exponential equations and change of base. The publication is a valuable reference for students and researchers interested in intermediate algebra.
