Laboratory This course focuses on factoring, arithmetic operations on polynomials and rational expressions, and the use of these concepts in problem solving. A student who is required by the college to take this course must pass it with C or better before being allowed to take a higher-level course in the mathematics sequence. Laboratory This course focuses on solution methods for quadratic equations and inequalities, graphs of quadratic functions, quadratic models, and the use of these concepts in problem solving. A graphing calculator is strongly recommended. A student who is required by the college to take this course must pass it with C or better before being allowed to take a higher-level course in the mathematics sequence.
Emphasis is on applications to business.
