Review & Description

"The Barnett, Ziegler, Byleen College Algebra" series is designed to be user friendly and to maximize student comprehension.

In each section, the worked examples are followed by matched problems that reinforce the concept that is being taught. In addition, the text contains an abundance of exercises and applications that will convince students that math is useful. A Smart CD is packaged with the seventh edition of the book. This CD reinforces important concepts, and provides students with extra practice problems. Read more
