Your Algebra Homework Can Now Be Easier Than Ever!

Course Syllabus for Precalculus Algebra

CONTACT HOURS: 3 CREDIT HOURS: 3

CCL DESCRIPTION: This is the first of two courses designed to emphasize topics
which are fundamental to the study of calculus. Emphasis is placed on equations and
inequalities
, functions (linear, polynomial, rational), systems of equations and inequalities,
and parametric equations. Upon completion, students should be able to solve practical
problems and use appropriate models for analysis and predictions. This course has been
approved to satisfy the Comprehensive Articulation Agreement general education core
requirement in natural science and mathematics.
