Algebra With Trigonometry for College Students, 3rd Edition

This new edition successfully blends primarily intermediate algebra topics, college algebra topics, and the essentials of trigonometry, and is aimed at students who need an algebra course to bridge the gap between elementary algebra and the more advanced courses in precalculus mathematics. Students learn to apply newly-learned skills with Kaufmann's unique approach: "learn a skill, use the skill to solve equations and inequalities, then use the equations and the inequalities to solve problems." This book should be of interest to first year undergraduate courses in algebra and trigonometry.
