Synopsis
A text for a reform intermediate algebra course. Students discover concepts while learning how to curve fit real data sets and participating in team explorations. Each exploration consists of several steps leading students toward discovering key concepts. Concepts addressed in explorations are reinforced by summary paragraphs that follow explorations and by homework exercises. Exercises involve real data taken from true situations, and there are also plenty of symbolic exercises requiring skill work, as well as lab assignments. Data sets on areas such as salmon population, marijuana use, sales of recorded music, and athletic events will interest students. Includes notes on graphing calculator commands and an appendix of graphing calculator instructions. Useful margin comments give tips on prerequisite and previously covered material, the modeling process, and graphing calculators. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
