Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from First Year Algebra
Algebra uses the same number symbols as arithmetic, namely, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc., but from time to time, as need for them arises, various new symbols will be introduced. While arith metic, to a limited extent, uses letters to represent numbers, their use is a distinctive feature of algebra.
