Understanding and Applying Mathematical Concepts
The goal of the Bittinger Concepts and Applications Series is to help today’s student learn and retain mathematical concepts. This proven program prepares students for the transition from skills-oriented elementary algebra courses to more concept-oriented college-level mathematics courses. This requires the development of critical-thinking skills: to reason mathematically, to communicate mathematically, and to identify and solve mathematical problems. The new editions support students with a tightly integrated MyLabTM Math course; a strong focus on problem-solving, applications, and concepts, and the robust MyMathGuide workbook and objective-based video program. In addition, new material–developed as a result of the authors’ experience in the classroom, as well as from insights from faculty and students–includes more systematic review and preparation for practice, as well as stronger focus on real-world applications.

About the Book
A GUIDED LEARNING PATH
To enhance the learning process and improve learner outcomes, the Bittinger program provides a broad range of support for students and instructors. Each person can personalize his or her learning or teaching experience by accessing help when he or she needs it.
PREPARE: Studying the concepts
Students can learn about each math concept by reading the textbook or eText, watching the To-the-Point Objective videos, participating in class, working in the MyMathGuide workbook – or using whatever combination of these course resources works best for him or her.
- The Bittinger five-step problem-solving process helps students develop a consistent approach to setting up and solving problems: (1) Familiarize, (2) Translate, (3) Carry out, (4) Check, and (5) State the answer. Repeated use of this problem-solving strategy throughout the text provides students with a starting point for any type of problem they encounter, and frees them to focus on the unique aspects of the particular problem.
- UPDATED! The body of the text has been enhanced to help students better build their skills and understand key underlying concepts. The exposition, examples, and exercises have been carefully reviewed and, as appropriate, revised or replaced. New content includes more systematic review and preparation for practice, as well as stronger focus on the real-world applications for the math.
- UPDATED! Interesting, contemporary applications of mathematics, many of which make use of real data, help motivate students and instructors. In this new edition, the authors have updated real-world data examples and exercises to include subjects such as renewable energy, graduate-school acceptance, and zipline rides.
PARTICIPATE: Making connections through active exploration
Knowing that developing a solid grasp of the big picture is a key to student success, the authors offer many opportunities for active learning to help students practice, review, and confirm their understanding of key concepts and skills.
- Exploring the Concept, Algebraic-Graphical Connections, and optional Technology Connections encourage students to think about and visualize concepts.
- Connecting the Concepts summarize several sections, and are followed by Mixed Review exercises, to help students understand how concepts work together.
- Student Notes and Study Skills are strategically located throughout the text.
- Chapter Resources are additional learning materials compiled at the end of each chapter, making them easy to integrate into the course at the most appropriate time. The mathematics necessary to use the resource has been presented by the end of the section indicated with each resource.
- Translating for Success and Visualizing for Success. These are matching exercises that help students learn to translate word problems to mathematical language and to graph equations and inequalities.
- Collaborative Activity. Students who work in groups generally outperform those who do not, so these optional activities direct them to explore mathematics together. Additional collaborative activities and suggestions for directing collaborative learning appear in the Instructor’s Resources Manual with Tests and Mini Lectures.
- Decision Making: Connection. Although many applications throughout the text involve decision- making situations, this feature specifically applies the math of each chapter to a context in which students may be involved in decision making.
PRACTICE: Reinforcing understanding
As students explore the math, they have frequent opportunities to practice, self-assess, and reinforce their understanding.
- Your Turn exercises appear after every example and direct students to work similar problems for immediate reinforcement of skills and concepts.
- NEW! Check Your Understanding offers students the chance to reflect on the concepts just discussed before beginning the exercise set. Working problems and answering questions helps students focus on the key skills and concepts just learned.
- Mid-Chapter Reviews offer guided solutions and mixed review exercises.
- Study Summary gives a synopsis of key terms and concepts which are paired with worked-out examples and practice exercises.
- Chapter Review and Test provides a thorough chapter review and practice test.
- Cumulative Review helps students retain and apply their knowledge from previous chapters.
EXERCISE SETS
- Vocabulary and Reading Check exercises begin every exercise set.
- Concept Reinforcement exercises appearing near the beginning of exercise sets, build students’ comprehension through True/False, matching, and fill-in-the-blank exercises.
- Aha! exercises are designed to encourage students to “look before they leap,” and they can be solved quickly without lengthy computation, if the student has the proper insight.
- Skill Review exercises review all major concepts covered previously, and often focus on a single topic from multiple perspectives. To solve the Synthesis exercises that follow, students will often need to use skills and concepts from earlier sections. This will help them develop deeper insight into the current topic.
- Writing exercises appear just before the Skill Review exercises, and they aid comprehension by requiring students to use critical thinking to explain concepts in one or more complete sentences.
- Quick Quiz at the end of exercise sets provides ongoing chapter review and help students prepare for te chapter test.
- Prepare to Move On at the end of exercise sets reviews previously covered skills and concepts to prepare students for the next section.
- Chapter Resources are compiled at the end of each chapter to make it easy to integrate into the course at the most appropriate time. They include: Decision Making: Connections to prepare students for math use in day-to-day life, along with Translating for Success, Visualizing for Success, and Collaborative Activities.

- EXPANDED! Interactive exercises in MyLab Math help build problem-solving skills and foster conceptual understanding. For this seventh edition, Guided Solutions exercises were added to reinforce the step-by-step problem-solving process, while the new Drag & Drop functionality was applied to matching exercises throughout the course to better assess a student’s understanding of the concepts.
- NEW! Learning Catalytics™ helps instructors generate class discussion, customize lectures, and promote peer-to-peer learning with real-time analytics. As a student response tool, Learning Catalytics uses students’ smartphones, tablets, or laptops to engage them in more interactive tasks and thinking.
