    College Algebra, 7th edition by James Stewart, Lothar Redlin, and Saleem Watson, published by Cengage Learning, is specifically focused on helping students learn to think mathematically and to develop genuine problem-solving skills. Incorporating technology, real-world applications, and additional useful pedagogy, the sixth edition promises to help more students than ever build conceptual understanding and a core of fundamental skills. The WebAssign enhancement to this textbook engages students with immediate feedback, rich tutorial content, and an interactive, fully customizable eBook.

    Questions 3-5 and 7 have Watch Its.

    Questions 1, 3 and 8 have Master Its.

    Question 1 uses the WebAssign NumberLine to graph the solution set.

    Question 3 uses the WebAssign graphing tool to graph the linear function.

    Question 4 demonstrates interval grading for domain and range, which can grade any canonically equivalent interval and enforce proper notation.

    Question 9 uses the matrix tool, which allows student to define the size of the resulting matrix.

    Question 10 shows the matrix tool, which grades the entire matrix and accepts multiple correct answers. Try entering [0,0; 1,0] and [1,0;0,0].

    View the complete list of WebAssign questions available for this textbook. This demo assignment allows many submissions and allows you to try another version of the same question for practice wherever the problem has randomized values.
