College Algebra.

Catalog description

This course is a functional approach to algebra, encompassing the study of equations, inequalities, system of equations, functions, and their graphs. The linear, quadratic, piece-wise defined, rational, polynomial, exponential, and logarithmic functions are defined, graphed, and evaluated. The functions will be used as the basis for mathematical models to solve applications that reflect realistic systems. Prerequisite: MAT 096 or placement.
