The successful student will be challenged by new concepts that require graphing, problem analysis, equation solving, and investigating properties of functions. S/he will demonstrate these skills in the following main areas: Linear, Quadratic, Exponential Models, and Data Analysis. The student will gain facility in applying math in the context of word problems and real-life situations. Abstract problem solving will also be addressed, including rigorous procedures which will be modeled within the course.
This course is a state-tested course. All students must take the Algebra I state test.
