The main focus of ELEMENTARY ALGEBRA, 5e, International Edition is to address the fundamental needs of today's developmental math students. Offering a uniquely modern, balanced program, ELEMENTARY ALGEBRA, 5e, International Edition integrates conceptual understanding with traditional skill and practice reinforced through visual and interactive practice in Enhanced WebAssign, available exclusively from Cengage Learning. By helping students understand the language of algebra and the "why" behind problem solving through instructional approaches and worked examples, they are better equipped to succeed at the "how." Practice is essential in making these connections and it is emphasized in ELEMENTARY ALGEBRA, 5e, International Edition with additional practice problems both in the text and Enhanced WebAssign. Give your students confidence by showing them how Algebra is not just about the x…it's also about the WHY.
