College algebra demystified : A Self Teaching Guide / by Huettenmueller, Rhonda.(CARDINAL)541340;

Completing the square -- Absolute value equations and inequalities -- The x y coordinate plane -- Lines and parabolas -- Nonlinear inequalities -- Functions -- Quadratic functions -- Transformations and combinations -- Polynomial functions -- Systems of equations and inequalities -- Exponents and logarithms -- Final exam.One of the most valuable tools acquired in a university education, college algebra is essential for courses from the sciences to computing, engineering to mathematics. It can help you do better on placement exams, even before college, and it's useful in solving the computations of daily life. Now anyone with an interest in college algebra can master it. In "College Algebra Demystified, entertaining author and experienced teacher Rhonda Huettenmueller breaks college algebra down into manageable bites with practical examples, real data, and a new approach that banishes algebra's mystery. With "College Algebra Demystified, you master the subject one simple step at a time--at your own speed. Unlike most books on college algebra, general concepts are presented first--and the details follow. In order to make the process as clear and simple as possible, long computations are presented in a logical, layered progression with just one execution per step. This fast and entertaining self-teaching course will help you: Perform better on placement exams. Avoid confusion with detailed examples and solutions that help you every step of the way. Conquer the coordinate plane, lines and intercepts, parabolas, and nonlinear equations. Get comfortable with functions, graphs of functions, logarithms, exponents, and more. Master aspects of algebra that will help you with calculus, geometry, trigonometry, physics, chemistry, computing, and engineering Reinforce learning and pinpoint weaknesses with questions at the end of every chapter, and a final at the end of the book.

Elements of mathematics: from Euclid to Godel / by Stillwell, John.(CARDINAL)512095;

Includes bibliographical references (pages 395-403) and index.Elements of Mathematics takes readers on a fascinating tour that begins in elementary mathematics but, as John Stillwell shows, this subject is not as elementary or straightforward as one might think. Not all topics that are part of today's elementary mathematics were always considered as such, and great mathematical advances and discoveries had to occur in order for certain subjects to become "elementary." Stillwell examines elementary mathematics from a distinctive twenty-first-century viewpoint and describes not only the beauty and scope of the discipline, but also its limits. From Gaussian integers to propositional logic, Stillwell delves into arithmetic, computation, algebra, geometry, calculus, combinatorics, probability, and logic. He discusses how each area ties into more advanced topics to build mathematics as a whole. Through a rich collection of basic principles, vivid examples, and interesting problems, Stillwell demonstrates that elementary mathematics becomes advanced with the intervention of infinity. Infinity has been observed throughout mathematical history, but the recent development of "reverse mathematics" confirms that infinity is essential for proving well-known theorems, and helps to determine the nature, contours, and borders of elementary mathematics. Elements of Mathematics gives readers, from high school students to professional mathematicians, the highlights of elementary mathematics and glimpses of the parts of math beyond its boundaries.
