Equations are the lifeblood of mathematics, science, and technology, and this book examines equations of all kinds. With his masterful ability to convey the excitement and elegance of mathematics, author Boris Pritsker explores equations from the simplest to the most complex--their history, their charm, and their usefulness in solving problems.
The Equations World bridges the fields of algebra, geometry, number theory, and trigonometry, solving more than 280 problems by employing a wide spectrum of techniques. The author demystifies the subject with efficient hints, tricks, and methods that reveal the fun and satisfaction of problem solving. He also demonstrates how equations can serve as important tools for expressing a problem's data, showing the ways in which they assist in fitting parts together to solve the whole puzzle. In addition, brief historical tours reveal the foundations of mathematical thought by tracing the ideas and approaches developed by mathematicians over the centuries. Both recreational mathematicians and ambitious students will find this book an ample source of enlightenment and enjoyment.

Math Challenge II-A is for students who are preparing for the American Mathematics Competition 10 (AMC 10) contest. Students are required to have fundamental knowledge in Algebra I, Geometry, Basic Number Theory and Counting and Probability up to the 10th grade level. Topics include polynomials, inequalities, special algebraic techniques, triangles and polygons, collinearity and concurrency, vectors and coordinates, numbers and divisibility, modular arithmetic, advanced counting strategies, binomial coefficients, sequence and series, and various other topics and problem solving techniques involved in math contests such as the AMC 10, advanced MathCounts, American Regions Math League (ARML), and Zoom International Math League (ZIML) Division H and Junior Varsity Division.

The course is divided into four terms:

• Summer, covering Algebra
• Fall, covering Geometry
• Winter, covering Combinatorics
• Spring, covering Number Theory

The book contains course materials for Math Challenge II-A: Algebra.

We recommend that students take all four terms. Each of the individual terms is self-contained and does not depend on other terms, so they do not need to be taken in order, and students can take single terms if they want to focus on specific topics.

This work forms a Key or Companion to the Higher Algebra, and contains full solutions of nearly all the Examples. In many cases more than one solution is given, while throughout the book frequent reference is made to the text and illustrative Examples in the Algebra. The work has been undertaken at the request of many teachers who have introduced the Algebra into their classes, and for such readers it is mainly intended; but it is hoped that, if judiciously used, the solutions may also be found serviceable by that large and increasing class of students who read Mathematics without the assistance of a teacher.

In this edition, the entire manuscript was typeset in a bigger size font 10 pt: DejaVu Serif'] (honoring readers' suggestions) using the LaTeX document processing system originally developed by Leslie Lamport, based on TeX typesetting system created by Donald Knuth.

An unusually thoughtful and well-constructed introduction to the serious study of mathematics, this book requires no background beyond high school courses in plane geometry and elementary algebra. From that starting point, it is designed to lead readers willing to work through its exercises and problems to the achievement of basic mathematical literacy. The text provides a fundamental orientation in modern mathematics, an essential vocabulary of mathematical terms, and some facility in the use of mathematical concepts and symbols. From there, readers will be equipped to move on to more serious work, and they'll be well on the way to having the tools essential for work in the physical sciences, engineering, and the biological and social sciences.
Starting with elementary treatments of algebra, logic, and set theory, the book advances to explorations of plane analytic geometry, relations and functions, numbers, and calculus. Subsequent chapters discuss probability, statistical inference, and abstract mathematical theories. Each section is enhanced with exercises in the text and problems at the end. Answers to the exercises and some of the problems are included at the end of each section.

Ever since 1984, when I started my teaching career in mathematics at Austin Community College, Austin, Texas, I envisioned writing a collection of math problems meant to cover most of the undergraduate spectrum. Finally, this collection is available to those interested in sharpening their math skills for academic success or pure enjoyment. The 1,460 problems are presented in groups of four, numbered such that problems 1 and 2 cover developmental mathematics (the essential elementary and secondary school curriculum), while numbers 3 and 4 cover most of the college credit concepts from college algebra to calculus, as the table of contents shows. Each group of four is preceded by a meaningful quotation and ends with the answers to the last question in each of the four problems in the order 1, 2, 3, 4, like this: (4-26-20-15). In addition, this volume starts with my proofs of the Pythagorean Theorem and a few of the basic divisibility rules, important mathematical concepts that are usually presented to students without pertinent justification. In this respect I focused on divisibility by 3, 9, and 4 for which my proofs follow similar patterns. Consequently, I hope this book can help those dedicated to their improvement in the realm of undergraduate mathematics by practicing consistently, patiently, joyfully, and persistently. How to use this collection of math problems is left up to each individual's decision according to her/his readiness, pleasure, and need. Moreover, the 365 inspirational/motivational quotations included in here are meant to combine mathematical and philosophical thinking. This can definitely contribute to significant personal advancement on both fronts, as we all aspire to a better life.
