"For the first four chapters, blueprint aid boxes are available to help you map out a plan to solve a word problem. We know the harder thing to do in solving word problems is often figuring out where to start. Use the blueprint as a model to get started. At the end of each chapter is a quick reference guide called the Interactive Chapter Organizer, in which key points, formulas, and examples are provided. A list of vocabulary terms is also included, as well as Check Figures for Extra Practice Quizzes. A column called "You Try It" gives you a chance to do additional practice. And solutions are provided in Appendix B. (A complete glossary is found at the end of the text.) Think of the Interactive Chapter Organizer as your set of notes and use it as a reference when doing homework problems and reviewing before exams"--
