Synopsis
A unified, beginner‑friendly path through algebra, geometry, and the start of calculus.
This book presents a coordinated approach where numbers and space reinforce each other, helping students see how ideas in algebra connect with geometric thinking and graphical reasoning.
The text explains a practical course design that emphasizes understanding over rote procedures. It draws on experience from Grinnell College and aims to be useful in both high school and college settings. Chapters introduce the graphical representation of functions, the basics of analytic geometry, and the step into differential calculus, with careful attention to how ideas relate and build on one another.- How functions are drawn and interpreted through graphs and coordinates.
- Connections between algebra, geometry, and the first ideas of calculus.
- Approaches to solving equations graphically, with attention to intuition and understanding.
- Practical examples and exercises that fuse theory with real problem solving.
