- Tài liệuBasic Algebra with Applications - 6th Edition(Ivan G. Zaigralin, 2018) Zaigralin, Ivan G.Basic Algebra with Applications (6th Edition) introduces fundamental algebraic concepts in a clear, step-by-step way, designed especially for students who need practical applications of mathematics in everyday life and technical fields. The book covers essential topics such as operations with real numbers, linear equations and inequalities, graphing, exponents, polynomials, factoring, rational expressions, and quadratic equations. Each chapter connects theory to real-world applications, with examples drawn from business, science, and daily problem-solving. Practice problems, review exercises, and applied projects help reinforce learning and build confidence. The approach is straightforward, emphasizing problem-solving skills and preparing learners for higher-level mathematics or vocational applications.
- Tài liệuGeneral Chemistry: Principles, Patterns, and Applications(Saylor Foundation, 2011) Averill, Bruce; Eldredge, PatriciaThe overall goal of the authors with General Chemistry: Principles, Patterns, and Applications was to produce a text that introduces the students to the relevance and excitement of chemistry. Although much of first-year chemistry is taught as a service course, Bruce and Patricia feel there is no reason that the intrinsic excitement and potential of chemistry cannot be the focal point of the text and the course. So, they emphasize the positive aspects of chemistry and its relationship to students' lives, which requires bringing in applications early and often. In addition, the authors feel that many first year chemistry students have an enthusiasm for biologically and medically relevant topics, so they use an integrated approach in their text that includes explicit discussions of biological and environmental applications of chemistry. Topics relevant to materials science are also introduced to meet the more specific needs of engineering students. To facilitate integration of such material, simple organic structures, nomenclature, and reactions are introduced very early in the text, and both organic and inorganic examples are used wherever possible. This approach emphasizes the distinctions between ionic and covalent bonding, thus enhancing the students' chance of success in the organic chemistry course that traditionally follows general chemistry. Finally, the authors made a conscious effort to treat material that has traditionally been relegated to boxes, and thus perhaps perceived as peripheral by the students, by incorporating it into the text to serve as a learning tool.
