QP - 5

In Algebra I Advanced 8, students will study linear, quadratic, and exponential functions and their related transformations, equations, and associated solutions. Students will study polynomials, radical expressions, sequences, law of exponents and linear systems. The students will connect functions and their associated solutions in both mathematical and real-world situations. Students will use technology to analyze statistical relationships. These concepts will involve more in-depth problem solving experiences than Algebra 1. This course satisfies Algebra 1 credit requirement for high school graduation.
