Students perform statistical analyses on data from their field of interest using calculators and PC software. Students taking General Math compute with rational numbers. They make and convert various measurements. Students use formulas to solve problems. They compute dimensions of geometric shapes.
Students use charts, tables, graphs, and statistical tools to represent and analyze data.
They analyze various financial situations. Students also perform basic algebraic operations up to and including solving linear equations. In each topic area, students solve application problems. Students taking General Math compute with rational numbers, i.e., fractions, decimals, percents. Students use their computation skills with rational numbers to solve application problems.
