Page	Loc	Description	Erroneous Text	Correction
31	Middle	#5, Statement 1 should read: “If the admission fee had been raised to $20 and twice as many people had attended, the total admission fees collected would have been three times the amount actually collected.”	“…three times greater.”	“…three times the amount actually collected.”
39	Middle	Answer choice (B) in the problem on the right should be 8 instead of 12.	12	8
42	Middle	The second line of the algebra solution in the middle of the page should actually read S = (1.25)(x/50) = (5/4)(x/50) = (1/4)(x/10) = x/40	$(1.25)S=\frac{x}{50}=\left(\frac{x}{50}\right)\left(\frac{5}{4}\right)=\left(\frac{x}{10}\right)\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)=\frac{x}{40}$	$S=(1.25)\left(\frac{x}{50}\right)=\left(\frac{5}{4}\right)\left(\frac{x}{50}\right)=\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)\left(\frac{x}{10}\right)=\frac{x}{40}$
107	Top	The explanation of question #5 should say that statement (2) is INSUFFICIENT.
160	Top	The second sentence of the first paragraph describes x and y as positive integers. It should specify that they are non-negative.	Since x and y have to be positive integers…	Since x and y have to be non-negative integers…
E-BOOK ONLY	near page 36	In the Chapter 4 section “All About the Base” under “A Negative Base” the two examples are switched. The example on the left should be -2^4 and the example on the right should be (-2)^4
E-BOOK ONLY	near page 88	In the Chapter 10 problem set, question 1, statement 1 should read less than OR equal to	$$y^2<y$$	$$y^2\le y$$
E-BOOK ONLY	near page 102	In the Chapter 12 section “Function Graphs”, the equation in the “What is the graph of the function?” question is written incorrectly. It should be f(x) = -2x2 + 1	f(x) = -22x + 1	f(x) = -2x2 + 1
