Algebra Essentials Practice Workbook with Answers: Linear & Quadratic Equations, Cross Multiplying, and Systems of Equations: Improve Your Math Fluency Series

A good refresher!

I needed to brush up on several items in math to pass my fundamentals of engineering exam. This is just what I needed lots of practice problems. I bought several of his books and so far I am well pleased. I think when I get through these books. I will actually be able to pass the math section for engineering. 🏆 I tried another online program, but I got buried in so much information and other things. These are really easy and simple and I can pack around one book at a time. Also, I don’t have to print anything. Everything‘s here in the book versus some of the online stuff. You need to download a bunch of files and print them all off. Then put them in a binder. That program may work for other people, but I just got too much on my plate. This book is perfect for me. Thanks Chris.

I bought this for my 8th grader that I homeschool. Each chapter starts out with about 3 pages of explanations and examples followed by 10-20 pages of problems with at least 9 on each page. I like the extra practice to make sure he has plenty of time and practice to get each process figured out, but there is quite possible too many problems for many students. I will most likely have him skip pages once he has the section mastered. On the plus side, it doesn't skip through the sections too fast and not give the students time to really learn the material. The explanations and examples are a little dry. It doesn't show much for explanations for each step. It definitely helps to have some Algebra under your belt already before starting on this book.

Great book to help with math practice if you're in high school or attaining GED

Pages upon pages of practice questions. 3 or 4 would have been good enough. 20 pages makes it BORING.

This might be a good book for a student who has been fairly good at math but is complaining that the teacher doesn't explain well. It would give a good student a different way of learning the material if the teacher's teaching style is not a good match for the student's learning style. Or it could be a good book to use with a tutor or a parent or a friend who is good at math but not used to teaching math.

I'm homeschooling my teen. As a math major, I am more than qualified to teach the concepts; however, I find creating worksheets to be tedious. I'd rather be teaching, so this book fulfills the need I have. One thing I really like about this workbook, compared to others, is that there are a lot of similar problems in each section. As students reinforce their math learning and retention with repetition, I find the multiple problems to be a great asset. And, as the price of this workbook is so reasonable, it won't feel as if I've wasted money if my teen demonstrates mastery level before all the problems are completed. I'd much rather have more than I need (and don't use), than not have enough.

This book makes algebra easier to understand than anything I've ever used. I love that the explanations are clear. So many books don't have enough practice problems, but this one has tons. I feel like the author made sure a person learning algebra will master a concept before moving on to the next concept.
