For courses in Beginning & Intermediate Algebra.

This package includes MyLab Math.

The MyLab™ Math course for Intermediate Algebra: Concepts and Applications with Integrated Review and Worksheets, 10/e from Bittinger/Ellenbogen/Johnson offers a complete beginning & intermediate algebra course with embedded review of prerequisite topics from previous courses. The Integrated Review MyLab course model can be used to bring underprepared students up to speed, helping to address the challenge of varying skill levels with one seamless MyLab Math course.

Integrated Review MyLab courses provide the full suite of supporting resources for the main course content, plus additional assignments and study aids for students who will benefit from remediation. Assignments for the integrated review content are preassigned in MyLab Math, making it easier than ever to create your course.

Understanding and Applying Mathematical Concepts

The goal of the Bittinger Concepts and Applications Series is to help today’s student learn and retain mathematical concepts. This proven program prepares students for the transition from skills-oriented elementary algebra courses to more concept-oriented college-level mathematics courses. This requires the development of critical-thinking skills: to reason mathematically, to communicate mathematically, and to identify and solve mathematical problems. The new editions support students with a tightly integrated MyLab Math course; a strong focus on problem-solving, applications, and concepts, and the robust MyMathGuide workbook and objective-based video program. In addition, new material — developed as a result of the authors’ experience in the classroom, as well as from insights from faculty and students — includes more systematic review and preparation for practice, as well as stronger focus on real-world applications.

Personalize learning with MyLab Math.

MyLab Math is an online homework, tutorial, and assessment program designed to work with this text to engage students and improve results. Within its structured environment, students practice what they learn, test their understanding, and pursue a personalized study plan that helps them absorb course material and understand difficult concepts.
