1 Credit Prerequisite(s): See Below
This course develops an understanding of the principles of algebra.
Students apply those principles to problems that connect to practical
experiences. Topics include equations, inequalities, functions, and
conic sections. Algebra 2 utilizes a graphing approach to algebra.
The TI-83+ or TI-84 graphing calculator is employed as a tool of
inquiry.
