ALGEBRA

Algebra 2  is a year-long course that is a branch of mathematics that uses symbols in place of numbers to describe and generalize patterns and relationships. Algebra 2 addresses math standards that build towards advanced algebraic topics, extending prior coursework and improving mathematical reasoning skills. Topics include reviewing and extending ideas of linear functions, linear systems of equations/inequalities, absolute value functions, quadratics in a deeper lens, and polynomial functions. In Algebra 2, students will take the ideas of statistical reasoning and extend them into approximately normal data, types of sampling, and experiments. Decisions will be based on representative sampling from a population and by creating and evaluating statistical models.
