Introductory Algebra and Trigonometry with Applications

While I resent the term remedial, I will admit that I am very weak in math. I had to use this text for an algebra semester and will have to use it again for a trigonometry semester. I did get a B+ in the class, but I think that had more to do with the teacher then the book. After I actually sat down, ignored that the teacher had said and read the text, the algebra portion became much clearer. You'll probably never buy this book to own it, but if you come across it in school, don't be afraid.
