This course will cover the same topics as Algebra I Level 1, but will use a more concrete approach and include more practice. Numerous applications of concepts are explored. It is designed for the student who is better suited to a more structured approach.
The course bridges the gap between the concrete ideas of arithmetic and the more abstract ideas of higher mathematics. Topics include operations with signed numbers, polynomials, linear and quadratic equations, graphing, and working with a variety of functions. A scientific calculator is required, although a Texas Instruments graphing calculator is recommended (TI 84+).
