Understanding Elementary Algebra w/Geometry textbook

This text was easy to use and had good examples. There were some mistakes in the answers in the book but overall the text is good. Excellent for the beginning algebra student. There is a student solution manual available for purchase but be aware that like the text, there are only answers to the odd numbered problems. The solution manual does show step by step how to solve the problems.

Excellent refresher

This book does a fanstastic job explaining the principles of basic algebra and incorporates really helpful word problems with each section. Each section also has review problems from previous sections so that you don't forget the principles you just learned. There are lots of exercise problems so that you can practice as much as necessary. I studied more advanced math over 15 years ago, and this was the perfect book to help me get back into math mode. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to self-study basic algebra.

Good examples
