College Algebra...
I bought if for my son, a freshman in college. Unfortunately, the seller failed to disclose that an online code would be needed in order to actually USE the book, so I had to pay an additional $75 for the software code. I assumed the "Study Guide" he advertised as included would suffice. It would have been $30 cheaper to buy the whole package brand new! Buyer Beware of Shady Sellers!!!
