Customer Reviews
Helpful but has errors
As a student who is learning intermediate algebra, it is important to have a book that has been well proofread and that can be trusted to be correct. I found many errors and didn't recognize them as such until I asked my professor. Some errors were typographical, problems were mixed up in one section, and some were just plain wrong. I know that people make errors, but this should have been better proofread.
Some examples:
Pg. 375 A "2" was ommitted in the distance column in the table on questions 75.
Pg. 459 through pg 461 - The problems are misnumbered.
Pg. 463. The answers for 39-47 are obviously incorrect.
These were just a few that I found. Overall, though, I did find the book to be helpful in checking my solutions.
Just don't get too frustrated if your work doesn't match this book's. Be aware that there are errors.
Fast Service!
I received this a day sooner than quoted. The book was in new condition (as it was listed) and was very happy with it.
