You should read the sentences carefully and think about their meaning. As you read, remember that algebra builds upon itself; for example, the method of factoring that you'll study don page 188 will be useful to you on page 697. Be sure to read with a pencil in your hand: Do calculations, draw sketches, and take notes.1. VOCABULARY: you'll learn many new words in algebra.

4. DISPLAYED MATERIAL: throughout this book important information is displayed in gray boxes. This information includes properties, definitions, methods, and summaries.

Answers for all Mixed Review Exercises and or selected Written Exercises, Problems, and Computer Exercises are given at the back of this book. Within each chapter you will find Self-Tests that you can use to check your progress. Answers for all Self-Tests are also given at the back of this book.
