Introductory & Intermediate Algebra: A Combined Approach has the following student supplements:
- MathXL
- MathXL is a web-based testing and tutorial system for students. It was created to help you succeed in your math course. The MathXL Web site will help you prepare for tests by allowing you to take practice tests that are similar to the chapter tests in your book. You'll also get a personalized study plan that acknowledges your strengths and pinpoints topics where you need the most practice. MathXL will then give you the practice and instruction you need to improve your skills. This site requires each user to purchase a user ID and logon password. MathXL logon packages may be available for purchase in your bookstore. If your campus bookstore does not carry MathXL packages, please contact Addison Wesley Longman's customer service.

- InterAct Math 2.0
- InterAct Math tutorial software has been developed and designed by professional software engineers working closely with a team of experienced developmental mathematics educators.
InterAct Math tutorial software includes exercises that are linked with every objective in the textbook and require the same computational and problem-solving skills as their companion exercises in the text. Each exercise has an example and an interactive guided solution that are designed to involve students in the solution process and to help them identify precisely where they are having trouble. In addition, the software recognizes common student errors and provides students with appropriate customized feedback.
With its sophisticated answer-recognition capabilities, InterAct Math tutorial software recognizes common appropriate forms of the same answer for any kind of input. It also tracks student activity and scores for each section, which can then be printed out.
Available for Windows and Macintosh computers, the software is available to qualifying adopters or can be bundled with books for sale to students.

MathNotes contains two resources for students. The InterAct Math tutorial allows the user to work through an infinite number of problems with hints and guided solutions.
InterAct software (the InterAct plug-in) can be downloaded from this site so that you can sample the math problems using your Web browser. "Numbers in the Real World" applications are exploration exercises that build upon the real-world use of math discussed in the textbook. Many of these problems require you to visit and collect data from external Web sites.
