PREP 048 - Advanced Math



Maximum of 5.0 credits Credits
Students learn to evaluate and interpret algebraic expressions, graph linear equations and inequalities, and solve applied problems. Credit and skills achieved can be applied towards HS21+ or preparation for GED® and higher education (was ABE 052).

 
Prerequisite Orientation and advising are required before taking this course.
Course-level Learning Objectives (CLOs)
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:

  1. Determine perimeter, area, volume, and circumference of shapes by correctly applying relevant formulas.
  2. Apply the order of operations and combine like terms as needed to evaluate and simplify mathematical expressions with and without signed numbers and variables.
  3. Solve linear equations and inequalities with one or two variables and solve applied problems.
  4. Interpret data, write algebraic equations, and use slope intercept form to graph a line on a coordinate grid.
  5. Demonstrate the relationship between dependent and independent variables by calculating the rate of change and finding slope.
  6. Simplify monomials and polynomials to solve applied problems.
