Algebra Can Make Your Life Easier: Computation Tips and Tricks Using Intermediate Level Identities

Mathematics makes every aspect of our lives easier: even disciplines which did not traditionally use mathematical tools are beginning to open up to the possibilities of using computation and analysis to create more reliable conclusions from data.
However, even though this tool is undoubtedly useful, teaching methods worldwide have ensured that a sizeable portion of the student population still views anything to do with numbers with suspicion and even fear.
This is intensified when we talk about algebra: there is something about the abstract nature of replacement of numbers by letters that makes most people think that it has no basis in reality, and that it can never be useful in daily life.
This book will prove that algebra has thousands of useful application in simplifying computation. I have made sure to give you enough practice: you will definitely have no problems with algebra after going through even a third of the exercises in this book!
