MATH 093C - Intermediate Algebra Liberal Arts C


Development of algebraic and problem-solving skills and concepts intended to prepare students for a mathematics foundation course. Topics include linear, quadratic, and exponential equations, functions and their applications, modeling and data analysis. This course does not satisfy the prerequisite for MATH 130 , MATH 150 , or MATH 165 . This self-paced course has no lecture and incorporates independent computer use: in order to advance through course topics, students must achieve required level of mastery. This course is intended for continuing MATH 093  self-paced students who have made suitable progress in the previous semester. PREREQUISITE(S): MATH 080  with a minimum grade of C or appropriate score on the mathematics assessment test and consent of department.  Assessment Level(s): AELW 940 / ELAI 990  , READ 120  , or AELR 930 / ELAR 980   . Two hours each week.

2 semester hours

TWO EQUIVALENT CREDIT HOURS. NOT APPLICABLE TO A DEGREE OR CERTIFICATE. MAY NOT BE USED TO SATISFY DEGREE REQUIREMENTS. NOT INCLUDED IN GPA CALCULATION.

Course Outcomes:
Upon completion of this course a student will be able to:

  • Identify whether a function is linear, quadratic, or exponential when it is defined verbally, symbolically, graphically or in tabular form.
  • Recognize specific symbolic and graphical characteristics of linear, quadratic, and exponential functions.
  • Interpret, in context, the key features of linear, quadratic, and exponential functions.
  • Use real world data to develop the appropriate linear, quadratic, or exponential function model.
  • Use linear, quadratic, and exponential models to evaluate and make predictions.
  • Use numerical, verbal, algebraic or graphical strategies for outcomes #3, #5 listed above.
  • Solve linear, quadratic, and exponential equations by applying algebraic, numerical, and/or graphing techniques.
  • Translate and solve linear, quadratic, and exponential application problems.
