In this sample, Linear Equations are being discussed. The standard text offers
a series of simple steps for manipulating Linear Equations. In contrast, Math Wiz discusses what a Linear Equation is
via a real-world example, then uses that example throughout. This allows definitions and manipulation techniques to be
introduced in context.
Another significant difference is that Math Wiz includes graphing in parallel
with the equations. This helps the student to visualize equations; the entire effect is meant to introduce the topic of Linear
Equations holistically.
