With You Every Step of the Way

The Tobey/Slater/Blair/Crawford series retains the hallmark characteristics that have always made the text so easy to learn and teach from, including a “building block” organization. Each program builds essential skills and conceptual understanding by breaking the mathematics down into manageable pieces.

The new editions address the latest trends and dynamics related to developmental mathematics course structures, including helping students gain a stronger conceptual understanding, while contextualizing the math. Instructors will find the inclusion of new conceptually oriented Guided Learning Videos with the accompanying Video Workbook with the Math Coach (in MyMathLab), plus a new emphasis on Career Explorations throughout the text and MyMathLab course to help students explore potential career paths. The Tobey series is flexible, and well-suited for a variety of classroom formats, including lecture-based, computer-lab based (modular and/or self-paced), hybrid, and online.

This revision retains the hallmark characteristics that have made Beginning & Intermediate Algebra so easy to learn from, while adding updates to the text and MyLab to keep it more relevant, and more supportive, than ever. The building block organization of the text builds essential skills by breaking mathematics into manageable pieces. The authors act as a student's “math coach,” there to support them at every turn with exercises, videos, and examples specifically built to help with the trickiest problems. Finally, an emphasis on the use of math in careers and financial literacy throughout helps to answer the perennial question from students: “when will I ever use this?” 

This revision includes all-important updates to applications and examples and more support for students. Beginning & Intermediate Algebra provides a comprehensive program that can work for any course format, from traditional lecture-based courses to fully online and distance learning. 

Math for Business & Finance: An Algebraic Approach provides modern examples for students to understand business mathematics and make connections with real-world applications. The course covers mathematical concepts from an algebraic approach, combined with Business applications. Every chapter is devoted to a Personal Finance theme, with topics that include Payroll and the Cost of Purchasing a Home. There is also extensive integration of scientific calculator notation, and also has the Wall Street Journal and Kiplinger news clips that have been widely popular in Jeffrey Slater's other two Business Math texts. Connect is the only integrated learning system that empowers students by continuously adapting to deliver precisely what they need, when they need it, and how they need it, so that your class time is more engaging and effective.
