"Success in college level mathematics courses for those interested in any one of a variety of disciplines such as computer science, engineering, management, statistics, or one of the natural sciences begins with a firm understanding of algebraic concepts. The goal of our textbook is to further the preparation of students, who have completed two years of high school agebra, in such important areas as graphical techniques, functions, and analytic geometry. These are some of the fundamental elements used in the calculus and other mathematical endeavours that many students pursue."
