Which Lial is Algebra 2


Recommended Posts

My daughter used BJU Algebra 2. When she got to College Algebra, I found she had not been properly prepared. I don't want to make the same mistake with my next child. He has done BJU Algebra 1 and Jacobs Geometry. Whilch Lial should I use for Algebra 2?

 

Thanks,

Sue

Intermediate Algebra

8th or 9th edition PAPERBACK

 

Lial has 2 different series that offer Intermediate Algebra as Algebra 2.

 

The Paperback one (8th edition has bridge/boardwalk on cover) has a larger font with practice problems to work in the sidebar as you read through the lesson.

 

ISBN for 8th is 0321279204

 

The LARGE paperback text has a durable binding-- but I also reinforce with clear self-laminating sheets. Mine have held up through several years use.

Do you think it is not because of the Algebra 2 book, or that most College Algebra classes today assume the students have been past Algebra 2? I don't know what those classes expect a student to already know. Our state requires 4 math credits, and college bound students are taking either Pre-Calculus or even Calculus their last year.
