Description for Equations and Inequalities: Elementary Problems and Theorems in Algebra and Number Theory
Paperback. Translator(s): Dilcher, Karl. Series: CMS Books in Mathematics. Num Pages: 344 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBF; PBH. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 236 x 158 x 26. Weight in Grams: 546.
A look at solving problems in three areas of classical elementary mathematics: equations and systems of equations of various kinds, algebraic inequalities, and elementary number theory, in particular divisibility and diophantine equations. In each topic, brief theoretical discussions are followed by carefully worked out examples of increasing difficulty, and by exercises which range from routine to rather more challenging problems. While it emphasizes some methods that are not usually covered in beginning university courses, the book nevertheless teaches techniques and skills which are useful beyond the specific topics covered here. With approximately 330 examples and 760 exercises.
