This is a decent algebra 2 workbook but I don't recommend it because there is no answer key.

How is one to know they are learning/progressing if they can not check their solutions? This book is a waste. Now i've got to buy something that has the solutions.

This review is from: Algebra 2 Practice Workbook with Examples (Paperback)

I bought this workbook to use with students I am tutoring over the summer. Each page in the workbook has an example on it followed by a few problems. (The number of practice problems varies depending on the topic. For example, one page has students write and graph three inequalities to solve a word problem; this page only had the one problem to solve.) The book's format is perfect for my students because they can refer to the example if they have forgotten how to work the problems, and the number of problems is small enough that they don't feel overwhelmed (especially since they are on summer break!).
