Marge Lial (late) was always interested in math; it was her favorite subject in the first grade! Marge’s intense desire to educate both her students and herself has inspired the writing of numerous best-selling textbooks. Marge, who received Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from California State University at Sacramento, was affiliated with American River College. An avid reader and traveler, her travel experiences often found their way into her books as applications, exercise sets, and feature sets. Her interest in archeology led to trips to various digs and ruin sites, producing some fascinating problems for her textbooks involving such topics as the building of Mayan pyramids and the acoustics of ancient ball courts in the Yucatan.

When John Hornsby enrolled as an undergraduate at Louisiana State University, he was uncertain whether he wanted to study mathematics education or journalism. His ultimate decision was to become a teacher, but after twenty-five years of teaching at the high school and university levels and fifteen years of writing mathematics textbooks, both of his goals have been realized. His love for both teaching and for mathematics is evident in his passion for working with students and fellow teachers as well. His specific professional interests are recreational mathematics, mathematics history, and incorporating graphing calculators into the curriculum. John’s personal life is busy as he devotes time to his family (wife Gwen, and sons Chris, Jack, and Josh), and has been an avid baseball fan all of his life. John’s other hobbies include numismatics (the study of coins) and record collecting. He loves the music of the 1960s and has an extensive collection of the recorded works of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.

A native Midwesterner, Terry McGinnis received her Bachelor’s of Science in Elementary Education with a concentration in Mathematics from Iowa State University. She has taught elementary and middle school mathematics, and developed and implemented the curriculum used with her students. Terry has been involved in college mathematics publishing for over 20 years, working with a variety of authors on textbooks in both developmental mathematics and precalculus. After working behind the scenes on many of the Lial/Hornsby textbooks and supplements for over 10 years, Terry joined Margaret Lial and John Hornsby in 2002 as coauthor of their developmental mathematics series. When not working, Terry enjoys spinning at a local health club, walking, and reading fiction. She is the devoted mother of two sons, Andrew and Tyler.

Callie Daniels has always had a passion for learning mathematics and brings that passion into the classroom with her students. She attended the University of the Ozarks where she earned a bachelor’s degree in Secondary Mathematics Education. She has two master’s degrees: one in Applied Mathematics and Statistics from the University of Missouri—Rolla, the second in Adult Education from the University of Missouri—St. Louis. Her professional interests include improving success in the community college mathematics sequence, using technology to enhance students’ understanding of mathematics, and creating materials that support classroom teaching and student understanding. She is able to pursue these interests as a contributor on the Lial Developmental Math series, and a co-author on the Precalculus series.

Support for all classroom types and students

A complete suite of materials includes updates to MyLab™ Math.

NEW – Integrated Review is now included within MyLab Math courses for every Lial title, including Precalculus, College Algebra & Trigonometry, and College Algebra. Integrated review can be used in corequisite courses or simply to help students who enter without a full understanding of prerequisite skills. Each student receives the help that he or she needs – no more, no less.

• Section Homework includes author-selected problems and increases in difficulty.
• Cumulative Review Quizzes draw from section homework questions covered to that point in the course–helping students feel prepared for a final exam at any point.

Support for learning concepts

A systematic approach is used to present each topic and is designed to actively engage students in the learning process. As a result, students develop both the conceptual understanding and the analytical skills necessary for success.

• The variety of exercise types promotes conceptual understanding and reduces rote memorization.
• Concept Preview Exercises begin each homework section to ensure students’ understanding of vocabulary and basic concepts, especially for hybrid, online, and flipped courses. These are assignable in MyLab Math and available in Learning Catalytics.
• Concept Check exercises focus on mathematical thinking and conceptual understanding.
• Relating Concepts Exercises help students tie together topics and develop problem-solving skills as they compare and contrast ideas, identify and describe patterns, and extend concepts to new situations. These exercises make great collaborative activities for pairs or small groups of students and are available in selected exercise sets. These are also assignable in MyLab Math.
• Pointers in the examples provide on-the-spot reminders and warnings about common pitfalls. Examples offer additional side comments where appropriate in the step-by-step solutions, and there are more section references to previously covered material.
• Now Try exercises conclude every example with a reference to one or more parallel, odd-numbered exercises from the corresponding exercise set. Students are able to immediately apply and reinforce the concepts and skills presented in the examples.

Support for review and test preparation

Ample opportunities for review are interspersed within chapters and also found at the end of chapters.

• NEW – Chapter R provides a thorough review of the basic algebraic concepts that trigonometry students need in order to succeed. 
• Topics include real number operations and properties, rules for exponents, operations on polynomials and factoring, rational and radical expressions, solving equations and inequalities, circles, functions, domain, range, and graphing techniques. 
• Instructors can choose to cover review topics from Chapter R at the beginning of their course or insert these topics as needed. Students who are under-prepared for the demands of trigonometry, as well as those who need a quick review, will benefit from the material. 
• A comprehensive end-of-chapter Test Prep is also included

• Quizzes appear periodically throughout the chapter for students to check their progress. Answers are located in the student answer section at the back of the text. 
• Summary Exercises offer mixed review, requiring students to decide which methods covered in the chapter should apply to a particular problem.
