Bob Blitzer has inspired thousands of students with his engaging approach to mathematics, making this beloved series the #1 in the market. Blitzer draws on his unique background in mathematics and behavioral science to present the full scope of mathematics with vivid applications in real-life situations. Students stay engaged because Blitzer often uses pop-culture and up-to-date references to connect math to students' lives, showing that their world is profoundly mathematical.
With the Fifth Edition, Blitzer takes student engagement to a whole new level. In addition to the multitude of exciting updates to the text and MyMathLab (R) course, new application-based MathTalk videos allow students to think about and understand the mathematical world in a fun, yet practical way. Assessment exercises allow instructors to assign the videos and check for understanding of the mathematical concepts presented.
The MyMathLab (R) online course engages students and keeps them thinking. Access code is required.
Ready to Go Courses make it easier for instructors to get started with MyMathLab. Each course includes author-chosen, pre-assigned homework, integrated review questions, and quizzes, to make creating a course even simpler.
MathTalk Videos arefun, application-based videos featuring Andrew Vickers showing students how the math they are learning in Blitzer applies to the real world. Filmed on location in New York City and Boston, these instructional videos have a sense of humor while demonstrating how everyday life is full of math applications and give the students context on why they should care. They will also have an accompanying Instructor Guide and video assessment questions assignable in MyMathLab.
Interactive Figures are now available, enabling users to manipulate figures to bring hard-to-convey math concepts to life. These are also assignable in MyMathLab.
Section-Lecture Videos provide lectures for each section of the text to help students review important concepts and procedures 24/7.
Chapter Test Prep Videos allow students to work through step-by-step solutions to all of the Chapter Test exercises from the textbook. These are available in MyMathLab and on YouTube.
The downloadable Learning Guide begins each chapter with an engaging application and is organized by objective, providing additional examples and exercises for students to work through for greater conceptual understanding and mastery of mathematical topics. The Learning Guide is available for download as PDF and Word (R) files from MyMathLab. It can also be packaged with the textbook and MyMathLab access code.
MyLab and Mastering from Pearson improve results for students and educators. Used by over ten million students, they effectively engage learners at every stage.
Since 2001, MyMathLab--along with MyStatLab and MathXL, have helped over 9 million students succeed at more than 1,900 colleges and universities. MyMathLab engages students in active learning-it's modular, self-paced, accessible anywhere with Web access, and adaptable to each student's learning style-and instructors can easily customize MyMathLab to better meet their students' needs.
For students
MyMathLab's homework and practice exercises are correlated to the exercises in the textbook, and they regenerate algorithmically to give students unlimited opportunity for practice and mastery.
You will work one-on-one, in real-time with a tutor using an interactive whiteboard. Tutors will guide you through solving your problems.
The MathXL Exercise Builder (MEB) for MyMathLab lets you create static and algorithmic online exercises for your online assignments.
For educators
Create, import, and manage online homework assignments, quizzes, and tests that are automatically graded, allowing you to spend less time grading and more time teaching.
The MathXL Exercise Builder (MEB) for MyMathLab lets you create static and algorithmic online exercises for your online assignments.

Bob Blitzer is a native of Manhattan and received a Bachelor of Arts degree with dual majors in mathematics and psychology (minor: English literature) from the City College of New York. His unusual combination of academic interests led him toward a Master of Arts in mathematics from the University of Miami and a doctorate in behavioral sciences from Nova University. Bob is most energized by teaching mathematics and has taught a variety of mathematics courses at Miami-Dade College for nearly 30 years. He has received numerous teaching awards, including Innovator of the Year from the League for Innovations in the Community College, and was among the first group of recipients at Miami-Dade College for an endowed chair based on excellence in the classroom. Bob has written Intermediate Algebra for College Students, Introductory Algebra for College Students, Essentials of Intermediate Algebra for College Students, Introductory and Intermediate Algebra for College Students, Essentials of Introductory and Intermediate Algebra for College Students, Algebra for College Students, Thinking Mathematically, College Algebra, Algebra and Trigonometry, Precalculus, and Trigonometry all published by Pearson.
