Algebra, Statistics and Probability: A Mathematics Book for High Schools and Colleges

This book, Algebra, Statistics and Probability, has been carefully written to teach you some topics in mathematics by explaining them with a mindset to fully equip you in the topics. Whether you want this book for general studies of mathematics, or you want this book to study for an exam, you will find it a very useful companion.This book is a mathematics teacher which is suitable for students in high schools or secondary schools and students in colleges. It will also serve as a useful tool for students who are preparing for entrance examinations into colleges and universities. Students in the higher institutions taking courses in mathematics will also find this maths book useful, especially when there is need for improved mathematical foundation for such students.The step by step explanations presented in the worked examples are easy to study since care was taken to sufficiently explain salient points and mathematical ideas. Efforts have been made to achieve a complete and simplified explanation of every example given in this textbook. Many worked examples have been included in each topic in order to fully cover every complexity the topic might contain. This book will boost your level of understanding of algebra, statistics and probability. Numerous exercises at the end of each chapter are intended to test students' understanding of the topic. Therefore students are thus presented with an effective means of self-assessment whereby they can determine their individual strengths and revision needs.The topics covered in this textbook include many areas under linear algebra, statistics, probability and even numbers and numerations. The topics include:*NUMBER BASES*MODULAR ARITHMETIC*STANDARD FORM AND APPROXIMATION OF NUMBERS*LAWS OF INDICES*LOGARITHMS OF NUMBERS GREATER THAN 1 - USE OF TABLES*THEORY OF LOGARITHMS*LINEAR EQUATIONS AND CHANGE OF SUBJECT OF FORMULAE*VARIATION*COLLECTION AND TABULATION OF DATA*MEAN, MEDIAN AND MODE OF UNGROUPED DATA*COLLECTION AND TABULATION OF GROUPED DATA*MEAN, MEDIAN AND MODE OF GROUPED DATA*MEAN DEVIATION*VARIANCE AND STANDARD DEVIATION*QUARTILES AND PERCENTILES BY INTERPOLATION METHOD*THE BASIC THEORY OF PROBABILITY*PROBABILITY ON SIMPLE EVENTS*PROBABILITY ON PACK OF PLAYING CARDS*PROBABILITY ON TOSSING OF COINS*PROBABILITY ON THROWING OF DICE*MISCELLANEOUS PROBLEMS ON PROBABILITY Readers with mathematical mindsets will find these topics well simplified, thereby making mathematics more interesting.A constructive review of this mathematics textbook will be highly appreciated from buyers so as to give an overview to others who intend to purchase a copy of it, and also to be a form of advice for the author when revising the book.
