Simplified College Algebra

Simplified College Algebra is a comprehensive guide that covers essential algebra topics and their real-life applications for senior secondary students. We delve into equations and inequalities, polynomials and rational functions, exponential and logarithmic functions, matrices, determinants, and their applications, functions and relations, and analytic geometry.
In the first chapter, we explore various types of equations, including single-variable, multivariable, linear, non-linear, and rational forms, as well as inequalities. We connect these concepts to practical applications.
The second chapter focuses on polynomials and rational functions, including commonly used polynomials like quadratic equations and related operations. The third chapter delves into exponential and logarithmic functions, covering properties such as graphing, conversions, and applications.
The fourth chapter addresses matrices and determinants, providing insights into their various operations and real-life problem-solving applications. In the fifth chapter, we discuss functions and graphing techniques, summarizing different types of equations, modeling, and graph analysis.
Finally, the sixth chapter covers analytic geometry, including conic sections like circles, ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas. With step-by-step explanations, this book makes complex algebra concepts accessible and understandable.
