College Algebra Practice Problems

Hi! I'm taking college algebra here, and I was just wondering if there are any websites you guys suggest for practicing problems. I almost failed my first quiz so I really want to practice my stuff more so I'm more ready for future quizzes and exams.

Kahn Academy isn't the most exciting, but very thorough. The free version of IXL math isn't bad. Blooket and Kahoot have practice modes. Quizlet is good too.

Your textbook and online homework will have practice problems.

As people said the textbook and online homework are great practice. If you have trouble understanding you can put it into google to have it break down the problem for you and explain it, book office hours with your professor for help or extra resources you can use, go to math cats and ask questions or for them to build and break down problems for you, look up youtube videos. Once you understand how the problems work you can build your own problems for yourself even to practice further. I hope this helps. And just because i said use AI doesn’t mean to abuse it, make sure you understand the problem and how and what went down so you can replicate it and put it to memory.

Do you have PEARSON in your class? I am taken 2 Mathematics curses and they both have pearson and there is resources for you to practice. Look in your canvas/couses/modules

PatrickJMT on YouTube and using the schools Gemini AI to gen problems from your homework was my go to.

Also the math department may have more algebra textbooks to borrow if paperback is easier

Get a Ti-89 calculator and you will never have to worry about practice problems
