First and foremost, we wish to thank our families for their patience and support during the creative process. We would also like to thank our students-the sole inspiration for the work. Among our colleagues, we wish to thank Rich Basich, Bill Previts, and Irina Lomonosov, who not only were early adopters of the textbook, but also contributed materials to the project. Special thanks go to Katie Cimperman, Terry Dykstra, Frank LeMay, and Rich Hagen who provided valuable feedback from the classroom. Thanks also to David Stumpf, Ivana Gorgievska, Jorge Gerszonowicz, Kathryn Arocho, Heather Bubnick, and Florin Muscutariu for their unwaivering support (and sometimes defense) of the book. From outside the classroom, we wish to thank Don Anthan and Ken White, who designed the electric circuit applications used in the text, as well as Drs. Wendy Marley and Marcia Ballinger for the Lorain CCC enrollment data used in the text. The authors are also indebted to the good folks at our schools' bookstores, Gwen Sevtis (Lakeland CC) and Chris Callahan (Lorain CCC), for working with us to get printed copies to the students as inexpensively as possible. We would also like to thank Lakeland folks Jeri Dickinson, Mary Ann Blakeley, Jessica Novak, and Corrie Bergeron for their enthusiasm and promotion of the project. The administrations at both schools have also been very supportive of the project, so from Lakeland, we wish to thank Dr. Morris W. Beverage, Jr., President, Dr. Fred Law, Provost, Deans Don Anthan and Dr. Steve Oluic, and the Board of Trustees. From Lorain County Community College, we wish to thank Dr. Roy A. Church, Dr. Karen Wells, and the Board of Trustees. From the Ohio Board of Regents, we wish to thank former Chancellor Eric Fingerhut, Darlene McCoy, Associate Vice Chancellor of A􀀋ordability and E􀀎ciency, and Kelly Bernard. From OhioLINK, we wish to thank Steve Acker, John Magill, and Stacy Brannan. We also wish to thank the good folks at WebAssign, most notably Chris Hall, COO, and Joel Hollenbeck (former VP of Sales.) Last, but certainly not least, we wish to thank all the folks who have contacted us over the interwebs, most notably Dimitri Moonen and Joel Wordsworth, who gave us great feedback, and Antonio Olivares who helped debug the source code.  \nTable of Contents  \nPreface ix  \n1 Relations and Functions 1  \n1.1 Sets of Real Numbers and the Cartesian Coordinate Plane .............. 1  \n1.1.1 Sets of Numbers ................................. 1  \n1.1.2 The Cartesian Coordinate Plane ........................ 6  \n1.1.3 Distance in the Plane .............................. 10  \n1.1.4 Exercises ..................................... 14  \n1.1.5 Answers ...................................... 17  \n1.2 Relations ......................................... 20  \n1.2.1 Graphs of Equations ............................... 23  \n1.2.2 Exercises ..................................... 29  \n1.2.3 Answers ...................................... 33  \n1.3 Introduction to Functions ................................ 43  \n1.3.1 Exercises ..................................... 49  \n1.3.2 Answers ...................................... 53  \n1.4 Function Notation .................................... 55  \n1.4.1 Modeling with Functions ............................ 60  \n1.4.2 Exercises ..................................... 63  \n1.4.3 Answers ...................................... 69  \n1.5 Function Arithmetic ................................... 76  \n1.5.1 Exercises ..................................... 84  \n1.5.2 Answers ...................................... 87  \n1.6 Graphs of Functions ....................","cbCaiiug4LEZMY5b","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiug4LEZMY5b","pdf",6105538,716,"English","# Preface\n# 1 Relations and Functions\n## 1.1 Sets of Real Numbers and the Cartesian Coordinate Plane\n## 1.2 Relations\n## 1.3 Introduction to Functions\n## 1.4 Function Notation\n## 1.5 Function Arithmetic\n## 1.6 Graphs of Functions\n## 1.7 Transformations\n# 2 Linear and Quadratic Functions\n## 2.1 Linear Functions\n## 2.2 Absolute Value Functions\n## 2.3 Quadratic Functions\n## 2.4 Inequalities with Absolute Value and Quadratic Functions\n## 2.5 Regression\n# 3 Polynomial Functions\n## 3.1 Graphs of Polynomials\n## 3.2 The Factor Theorem and the Remainder Theorem\n## 3.3 Real Zeros of Polynomials","[{\"question\":\"What topics are covered under relations and functions?\",\"answer\":\"The book covers sets of real numbers and the Cartesian coordinate plane, distance, graphs of equations, introduction to functions, function notation, function arithmetic, graphs of functions, and transformations.\"},{\"question\":\"Which function types are included in the chapter on linear and quadratic functions?\",\"answer\":\"It includes linear functions, absolute value functions, quadratic functions, inequalities involving absolute value and quadratic functions, and regression.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the polynomial functions chapter address?\",\"answer\":\"It covers graphs of polynomials, the Factor Theorem and the Remainder Theorem, and real zeros of polynomials, including guidance for and against using a graphing calculator.\"}]","College Algebra - Version b-c Corrected Edition | PDF",1792132817,1804]
