Review
"[The primary feature which prompted the adoption was] the quality of writing."
". . . there seems to be a good progression from easy to difficult problems with the greatest quantity in moderate to difficult. This is desirable. The vast majority of the systems have independent equations, which is also appropriate. Inconsistent systems and systems of dependent equations, however, are appropriately represented. The problems are fairly well balanced between those that involve fractions or have fractional solutions and those that are strictly integer based. This again is very good as excessive use of integer problems is usually a common problem in developmental texts. Good job on this! Finally, the problems appear to be exceptionally balanced on their distribution by the characteristics emphasized in each of the examples."
"There is a good variety of problems with varying difficulty levels. Most answers come out nicely yet there are sufficient numbers of problems where a student gets no solution, infinitely many solutions, and fractional answers. I liked the fill in the blank questions and explanation problems, also."
