Text<\/h3>\r\nThe text for\u00a0College Algebra<\/a> was written by Carl Stitz and Jeff Zeager. \u00a0This text is a favorite amongst post-secondary math instructors based on it's elegant delivery\u00a0of mathematical topics delivered with a twist of humor.\r\nWhile the authors would like nothing more than to delve quickly and deeply into the sheer excitement that is Precalculus, experience has taught us that a brief refresher on some basic notions is welcome, if not completely necessary, at this stage.<\/blockquote>\r\nTopic Overview<\/h3>\r\nThis course is delivered in 9 chapters including the following topics:\r\n\r\n \r\nModule 1: Relations and Functions<\/h2>\r\n\r\n \t- Sets, relations, functions and function notation<\/li>\r\n \t
