The faculty at the Math Department here use IBM's as a general rule.
Among the Mac users, there were the following recommendations, (with
some comments appended by me)--

1.  Mac Equation.  Available from standard mail order houses for about
$50.  (This works fine.)

2.  Microsoft Word with its formula building commands.  (First you must
climb the steep learning curve.)

3.  Mathematica using Mac notebooks.  (Probably won't fit on your machine;
probably too expensive; probably much too powerful for you now.  Nevertheless,
keep it in mind in case you pursue advanced mathematics.)

Thanks to the many people who are responding to this inquiry.  I find the
contributions quite helpful.
