Elayn Martin-Gay believes every student can succeed and that is the motivating force behind her best-selling texts and acclaimed video program. With Martin-Gay you get 100% consistency in voice from text to video! Prealgebra 5e is appropriate for a 1-sem course in Prealgebra, and was written to help students effectively make the transition from arithmetic to algebra. To reach this goal, Martin-Gay introduces algebraic concepts early and repeats them as she treats traditional arithmetic topics, thus laying the groundwork for the next algebra course your students will take. Prealgebra and Introductory Algebra 2e is also available if you prefer to use one combined textbook for your 2-sem sequence of Prealgebra and Introductory Algebra (aka Beginning or Elementary algebra).
