The quality and quantity of the exercises, combined with interesting applications, cutting-edge design, and innovative resources, make teaching easier and help students succeed in mathematics. This edition, intended for algebra and trigonometry courses that require the use of a graphing calculator, includes a moderate review of algebra to help students entering the course with weak algebra skills. Accessibility to students is achieved through careful writing and design, including same-page examples and solutions, which maximize the readability of the text. Similarly, side-by-side solutions show algebraic, visual, and numeric representations of the mathematics to support students' various learning styles. TheLibrary of Functionsthread throughout the text provides a definition and list of characteristics for each elementary function and compares newly introduced functions to those already presented to increase students' understanding of these important concepts. Technology Supportnotes provided at point-of-use throughout the text guide students to theTechnology Support Appendix,where they can learn how to use specific graphing calculator features to enhance their understanding of the concepts presented.

Algebra and Trigonometry
by Richard G. Brown and Mary P. Dolciani and Robert H. Sorgenfrey and Robert B. KaneAn algebra book requires a different type of reading than a novel or a short story. Every sentence in a math book is full of information and logically linked to the surrounding sentences. You should read the sentences carefully and think about their meaning. As you read, remember that algebra builds upon itself; for example, the method of factoring that you'll study on page 188 will be useful to you on page 697. Be sure to read with a pencil in your hand: Do calculations, draw sketches, and take notes.

Human Genetics
by LewisToday, human genetics is for everyone. It is about variation more than about illnesses, and increasingly about the common rather than about the rare. Once an obscure science or an occasional explanation for an odd collection of symptoms, human genetics is now part of everyday conversation. By coming to know genetic backgrounds, people can control their environments in more healthy ways. Genetic knowledge is, therefore, both informative and empowering. This edition of Human Genetics: Concepts and Applications shows students how and why that is true

Revised AP Edition
Essentials of Comparative Politics with Cases Fifth AP Edition
by Patrick H. O'Neil and Karl Fields and Don ShareThis textbook is meant to contribute to our understanding of comparative politics (the study of domestic politics around the world) by investigating the central ideas and questions that make up this field. It begins with the most basic struggle in politics--the battle between freedom and equality and the task of reconciling or balancing these ideals. How this struggle has unfolded across place and time represents the core of comparative politics. The text continues by emphasizing the importance of institutions. Human action is fundamentally guided by the institutions that people construct, such as culture, constitutions, and property rights. Once established, these institutions are both influential and persistent--not easily overcome, changed, or removed. How these institutions emerge, and how they affect politics, is central to this work.
