Designed for high-school students and teachers with an interest in mathematical problem-solving, this stimulating collection includes more than 300 problems that are "off the beaten path" -- i.e., problems that give a new twist to familiar topics that introduce unfamiliar topics. With few exceptions, their solution requires little more than some knowledge of elementary algebra, though a dash of ingenuity may help.
Readers will find here thought-provoking posers involving equations and inequalities, diophantine equations, number theory, quadratic equations, logarithms, combinations and probability, and much more. The problems range from fairly easy to difficult, and many have extensions or variations the author calls "challenges."
By studying these nonroutine problems, students will not only stimulate and develop problem-solving skills, they will acquire valuable underpinnings for more advanced work in mathematics.

Perfect Fit and Great Quality Sheet Set (10/10)
Color: Grey, Size: King, Color: Grey, Size: King
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (10/10) This bedsheet has been working flawlessly and honestly exceeded my expectations. The fit is perfect on the mattress—it wraps securely without slipping or coming loose during the night. It stays in place even after movement, which makes a big difference in comfort and convenience. The fabric feels soft, comfortable, and well-made, giving a clean and fresh look to the bed. It’s also very easy to put on and remove, which makes washing and changing sheets much simpler. So far, there are absolutely no issues at all. Everything works exactly as it should, and it holds up really well with daily use. Overall, it’s a simple but high-quality product that does its job perfectly. I would definitely recommend it—10/10.

super comfortable, not waking up as often as before
Color: Grey, Size: Queen
decided to try these after seeing the tons of good reviews and since they were on sale. also one of my favorite colors in general which is a great neutral shade for bedding, not too bright and not too dull. I ordered a queen thinking my mattress might have been a queen as I previously bought some mainstays walmart sheets. with that brand the fitted sheet in full was way too small. turns out my mattress is in fact a full it is just that mainstays is not good quality or sized right, so this brand the queen is a bit big for my mattress but not too big of a deal. i am not looking for a perfect look, just covering the mattress is the most important. anyway since getting these sheets in the mail and giving them a run through the wash and dry before putting them on my bed my sleep quality has improved. the sheets are not too hot, are soft and I actually do not wake up as often as before. the sheets are not too thin like other brands and are not thick like flannel either. they are a nice in between. I wonder if they will help keep me cool in the summer, probably since they are actually breathable. I would definitely reccommend giving these sheets a try, worth the money and a good deal on sale. better quality that other store bought sheets.

Great Sheets for price. Color is great.
Color: Grey, Size: Twin
These sheets were great cost for the product. They are soft and comfortable seeming as if it will be nice for winter and summer nights. Fit perfectly on a twin bed even givning a little extra room to fit mattress and box spring if mattress is not to large. The thread count for comfort and thickness is great. They seem great for the price. I love the color is completely spot on. very elegant
