Written in a clear and concise manner, it carefully builds on the basics learned in Elementary Algebra and introduces the more advanced topics required for further study of applications found in most disciplines. Used as a standalone textbook, it offers plenty of review as well as something new to engage the student in each chapter. Written as a blend of the traditional and graphical approaches to the subject, this textbook introduces functions early and stresses the geometry behind the algebra. While CAS independent, a standard scientific calculator will be required and further research using technology is encouraged. Intermediate Algebra clearly lays out the steps required to build the skills needed to solve a variety of equations and interpret the results. With robust and diverse exercise sets, students have the opportunity to solve plenty of practice problems. In addition to embedded video examples and other online learning resources, the importance of practice with pencil and paper is stressed. This text respects the traditional approaches to algebra pedagogy while enhancing it with the technology available today. In addition, Intermediate Algebra was written from the ground up in an open and modular format, allowing the instructor to modify it and leverage their individual expertise as a means to maximize the student experience and success. The importance of Algebra cannot be overstated; it is the basis for all mathematical modeling used in all disciplines. After completing a course sequence based on Elementary and Intermediate Algebra, students will be on firm footing for success in higher-level studies at the college level.12322022-08-22T18:21:44Z2024-01-22T14:52:41ZBasic Algebra with Applications - 6th Edition<img alt="Read more about Basic Algebra with Applications - 6th Edition" title="Basic Algebra with Applications - 6th Edition cover image" class="cover " width="543" height="706" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MzkzOCwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--968868a234b0280add16a90f0cd0fe1aa2a4e13e/Screen%20Shot%202022-08-22%20at%201.19.12%20PM.png" />Basic Algebra with Applications12242022-08-08T16:46:07Z2024-01-22T14:52:33ZTea Time Linear Algebra Explorations in Mathematics - 2nd Edition<img alt="Read more about Tea Time Linear Algebra Explorations in Mathematics - 2nd Edition" title="Tea Time Linear Algebra Explorations in Mathematics - 2nd Edition cover image" class="cover " width="383" height="500" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6Mzg5NCwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--fe3446485e3ff29f76b8a233514458028f9a2a72/titlepage-2.png" />This creation is an all-purpose open source textbook for linear algebra classes of all ilks.

In this book we journey farther into the subject, to explore a greater variety of topics including graphs and modeling, curve-fitting, variation, exponentials and logarithms, and the conic sections. We use technology to handle data and give some instructions for using a graphing calculator, but these can easily be adapted to any other graphing utility.10982021-11-15T20:10:27Z2024-01-22T14:52:28ZElementary Algebra<img alt="Read more about Elementary Algebra" title="Elementary Algebra cover image" class="cover " width="254" height="328" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MzA3NiwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--a8bcf8d0ec7a31990e6c155c7fb9ecb44a17eff8/cover%20(1).png" />This text introduces the basic skills and ideas of algebra.10972021-11-15T19:55:38Z2024-01-22T14:52:28ZTrigonometry<img alt="Read more about Trigonometry" title="Trigonometry cover image" class="cover " width="144" height="154" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MzA3NSwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--1310ba8fce333d0e01b0e36154ed07a9a951b850/cover.png" />This text covers the content of a standard trigonometry course, beginning with a review of facts from geometry.10712021-10-06T19:04:28Z2024-01-22T14:52:28ZEuclid's Elements Redux<img alt="Read more about Euclid's Elements Redux" title="Euclid's Elements Redux cover image" class="cover " width="675" height="788" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MjkyMSwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--73c450f44e2bd9709ca7939404d48a190ae907a5/Capture.JPG" />"Euclid's 'Elements' Redux" is an open textbook on mathematical logic and geometry based on Euclid's "Elements" for use in grades 7-12 and in undergraduate college courses on proof writing. Many problem solvers throughout history wrestled with Euclid as part of their early education including Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo, Sir Isaac Newton, Ada Lovelace, Abraham Lincoln, Bertrand Russell, and Albert Einstein. This edition is part of an effort to ensure that tomorrow's great thinkers will have that same privilege.10372021-08-16T15:51:57Z2024-01-22T14:52:26ZOptimal, Integral, Likely Optimization, Integral Calculus, and Probability for Students of Commerce and the Social Sciences<img alt="Read more about Optimal, Integral, Likely Optimization, Integral Calculus, and Probability for Students of Commerce and the Social Sciences" title="Optimal, Integral, Likely Optimization, Integral Calculus, and Probability for Students of Commerce and the Social Sciences cover image" class="cover " width="501" height="649" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MjczMywicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--1b53df3c71e355ecebf13e96d9872405e54035bf/new%20boosask.JPG" />Optimal, Integral, Likely is a free, open-source textbook intended for UBC’s course MATH 105: Integral Calculus with Applications to Commerce and Social Sciences.
