The text is designed to help college algebra students with little confidence in their mathematical abilities and or limited high school preparation in mathematics. The objective is to give students sufficient math confidence and skills so that they can continue on in more advanced mathematics courses, such as precalculus or statistics, or in quantitatively based courses in other disciplines.
