A thorough review of Algebra is presented before proceeding to standard Algebra II topics. Career awareness is emphasized through ample demonstrations of mathematical methods in science and business. Probability, statistics, and discrete math problem-solving applications are included. This is a more rigorous course in Alg. II preparing students for advanced mathematics and calculus.
Topics covered are functions, graphing, complex numbers, conics, probability, sequence, and series.
It is for the college bound student who may choose a major in business, government, economics, psychology or sociology as well as for the student who may major in science, computer science or mathematics. Contemporary technology such as graphing calculators and computers will be used to solve problems. This may be taken at the same time as Pre-Calculus or Calculus. This course is designed for students with demonstrated superior ability in mathematics who have successfully completed Algebra II and are interested in pursuing a rigorous study of modern mathematical analysis. 12 This course is offered to students with demonstrated ability in mathematics who have successfully completed Pre-Calculus.
