  College Algebra with Review

  Lanee Young Ph.D. and Jayme Goetz

  This text is disseminated via the Open Education Resource (OER) LibreTexts Project (https://LibreTexts.org) and like the thousands of other texts available within this powerful platform, it is freely available for reading, printing, and "consuming." The LibreTexts mission is to bring together students, faculty, and scholars in a collaborative effort to provide an accessible, and comprehensive platform that empowers our community to develop, curate, adapt, and adopt openly licensed resources and technologies; through these efforts we can reduce the financial burden born from traditional educational resource costs, ensuring education is more accessible for students and communities worldwide. Most, but not all, pages in the library have licenses that may allow individuals to make changes, save, and print this book. Carefully consult the applicable license(s) before pursuing such effects. Instructors can adopt existing LibreTexts texts or Remix them to quickly build course-specific resources to meet the needs of their students. Unlike traditional textbooks, LibreTexts’ web based origins allow powerful integration of advanced features and new technologies to support learning.

  Elements of Statistics

  Paul Flesher, Jeffrey Sadler, Jonathan Rehmert, and Lanee Young

  This undergraduate text, intended for an introductory statistics course, motivates and develops basic inferential statistics. The first chapter establishes the necessity of inferential statistics, lays the basis of a scientific worldview, and finishes by introducing sampling methods and variables. Subsequent chapters develop visualizations, descriptive statistics, probability, and random variables. Sampling distributions are treated in the fifth chapter which is immediately followed by the development of confidence intervals and hypothesis testing. The text concludes with a treatment of linear regression. The use of Excel is emphasized throughout. The text is best viewed online through LibreTexts.
