Reviews the concepts and properties of math and algebra, including integers, algebraic expressions, graphing, solving equations, and working with formulas, exponents, polynomials, factoring, quadratic equations, and radicals.

Using a self-paced, multiple-choice approach that moves from basic questions to more difficult ones, this guide of practice questions teaches students to successfully prepare for all the different types of algebra questions on standardized tests. The book covers the full range of math concepts and properties, from exponents and radicals, algebraic expressions and integers, to multiplying and factoring polynomials and using the quadratic formula to solve equations.

Helps prepare for all types of algebra questions found on standardized exams and placement tests, including civil service tests, the SAT, GRE, and GMAT. Reviews math concepts and properties, including exponents and radicals, and features problems and practice exercises involving algebraic expressions and integers, polynomials, quadratic equations.

For the PSAT, SAT, and GRE exams-use quantitative comparison questions to test math skills. Gaining familiarity with this specialized question type is a proven technique for increasing test scores. This volume contains only questions that ask you to differentiate between two values by deciding which column contains the item of greater value, if the values in the columns are the same, or if the value cannot be determined by the information given.

Presents a series of logic and reasoning problems to help the reader to prepare for an important exam, improve reasoning skills for work or school, or hone the readers mind.

Helps students become familiar with the question format on standardized tests and learn how to apply logic and reasoning skills to word knowledge. Focuses on exact word definitions and secondary word meanings, relationships between words and how to draw logical conclusions about possible answer choices. Identifies analogies, cause/effect, part/whole, type/category, synonyms, and antonyms.

It's true that a powerful vocabulary will pave the way to success! To measure verbal skills, most standardized or placement tests include a vocabulary section. In addition, civil service, health care, or job placement exams evaluate a candidate's verbal aptitude with a vocabulary test.

Presents study tools for basic math and pre-algebra including subject reviews, hundreds of practice problems, a diagnostic test, and a full-length test with answers that adapts to one's skill level. Includes a CD-ROM with six hundred practice problems.

College Algebra provides a comprehensive exploration of algebraic principles and meets scope and sequence requirements for a typical introductory algebra course. The modular approach and richness of content ensure that the book meets the needs of a variety of courses. College Algebra offers a wealth of examples with detailed, conceptual explanations, building a strong foundation in the material before asking students to apply what they've learned. Coverage and Scope In determining the concepts, skills, and topics to cover, we engaged dozens of highly experienced instructors with a range of student audiences. The resulting scope and sequence proceeds logically while allowing for a significant amount of flexibility in instruction. Chapters 1 and 2 provide both a review and foundation for study of Functions that begins in Chapter 3. The authors recognize that while some institutions may find this material a prerequisite, other institutions have told us that they have a cohort that need the prerequisite skills built into the course. Chapter 1: Prerequisites Chapter 2: Equations and Inequalities Chapters 3-6: The Algebraic Functions Chapter 3: Functions Chapter 4: Linear Functions Chapter 5: Polynomial and Rational Functions Chapter 6: Exponential and Logarithm Functions Chapters 7-9: Further Study in College Algebra Chapter 7: Systems of Equations and Inequalities Chapter 8: Analytic Geometry Chapter 9: Sequences, Probability and Counting Theory
