This book contains 320 unconventional problems in algebra, arithmetic, elementary number theory, and trigonometry. Most of the problems first appeared in competitive examinations sponsored by the School Mathematical Society of the Moscow State University and the Mathematical Olympiads held in Moscow. Although most of the problems presuppose only high school mathematics, they are not easy; some are of uncommon difficulty and will challenge the ingenuity of any research mathematician. Nevertheless, many are well within the reach of motivated high school students and even advanced seventh and eighth graders.
The problems are grouped into twelve separate sections. Among these are: the divisibility of integers, equations having integer solutions, evaluating sums and products, miscellaneous algebraic problems, the algebra of polynomials, complex numbers, problems of number theory, distinctive inequalities, difference sequences and sums, and more.
Complete solutions to all problems are given; in many cases, alternate solutions are detailed from different points of view. Solutions to more advanced problems are given in considerable detail. Moreover, when advanced concepts are employed, they are discussed in the section preceding the problems. Useful in a variety of ways in high school and college curriculums, this challenging volume will be of particular interest to teachers dealing with gifted and advanced classes.

This is a dandy little item. Easy to use straight out of the box, No fancy bells and whistles.but why should a mouse try to replicate commands that are on the laptop?

It's a good working mouse but it's loud clicking and a little small.
Color: Swift Grey, Size: 1 Pack, Style: USB Receiver
I thought I was getting a quite clicking mouse but this is not it. I may have misunderstood the description or confused this mouse with another while researching. It's not a five star for me because it clicks loud and it's small and too easy to accidentally click one of the buttons when you don't want it clicked. The accidental clicking happened a lot and was becoming frustrating. As a working mouse, it does its job and it's reliable. Overall, I like the appearance of it and it feels nice and grips good. I think the price is reasonable for this product. I ended up getting a quite mouse to replace this one, but I am keeping it as a backup.

Very Fast
Color: Red, Size: 1 Pack, Style: USB Receiver
The Logitech M185 Wireless Mouse was exactly what I needed. This mouse works great and included a battery to get you started. No problems using it with my HP EliteBook laptop. I have to say, I was impressed with how fast I got the product. I don't think I could have driven to the store and back any faster. The service and price were worth it. Thanks again Amazon.
