Gary Rockswold teaches algebra in context, answering the question, ôWhy am I learning this?ö By experiencing math through applications, students see how it fits into their lives, and they become motivated to succeed. RockswoldÆs focus on conceptual understanding helps students make connections between the concepts, and as a result, students see the bigger picture of math and are prepared for future courses.
This streamlined textûEssentials of College Algebra with Modeling and Visualization, Fourth Editionûcovers linear, quadratic, nonlinear, exponential, and logarithmic functions and systems of equations and inequalities, which gets to the heart of what students need from this course. A more comprehensive college algebra text is also available .
Product Description
ALERT: Before you purchase, check with your instructor or review your course syllabus to ensure that you select the correct ISBN. Several versions of Pearson's MyLab & Mastering products exist for each title, including customized versions for individual schools, and registrations are not transferable. In addition, you may need a CourseID, provided by your instructor, to register for and use Pearson's MyLab & Mastering products.
Packages
Access codes for Pearson's MyLab & Mastering products may not be included when purchasing or renting from companies other than Pearson; check with the seller before completing your purchase.
Used or rental books
If you rent or purchase a used book with an access code, the access code may have been redeemed previously and you may have to purchase a new access code.
Access codes
Access codes that are purchased from sellers other than Pearson carry a higher risk of being either the wrong ISBN or a previously redeemed code. Check with the seller prior to purchase.

Features + Benefits
Applications are woven throughout to introduce mathematics topics and content. These contemporary examples-many of which are updated for the new edition-draw from a wide variety of real data, enabling students to see the relevance of math and become more effective problem solvers.
NEW! Getting Started pointers help students develop an overall problem-solving strategy before they begin writing a detailed solution. These appear in examples that require multistep solutions.
Making Connections features show how concepts throughout the course are interrelated by pointing out connections between previously learned material and new material.
Checking Basic Concepts exercises appear after every other section and can be used for individual or group review. These exercises require 10-20 minutes to complete and are also appropriate for in-class work.
Extensive exercise sets give students abundant opportunity for practice and review. Every exercise set has been revised to ensure that there are sufficient types of exercises for each mathematical concept and that there is a pairing of odd and even numbered exercises.
Comprehensive end-of-chapter material serves as an excellent resource for extra practice and test preparation. Each chapter concludes with a summary of key concepts, review exercises, and extended and discovery exercises.
Chapter R, Reference contains review material from intermediate algebra and basic geometry courses. This material is referenced by Algebra Review andGeometry Review margin notes.
A Graphing Calculator Appendix provides tips, techniques, and keystrokes for the popular TI-83, TI-83 Plus, and TI-84 Plus graphing calculators, allowing students to easily work on their own. This material is referenced by Calculator Help notes in the margins of the text.
"Now Try" exercise suggestions follow every example, allowing students to immediately reinforce the concepts as they are reading.
Cumulative Reviews, which appear every few chapters, require students to understand and use multiple skills from different chapters. This is an excellent test of comprehension of key concepts in the course.
