Designed for students who need to develop requisite math skills while simultaneously studying advanced algebra topics. During lab sessions, students receive instruction and practice in fundamental skills directly related to the topics presented during lecture. The course emphasizes the use of the graphing calculator as a learning tool and as a means to obtain solutions. Topics include linear, quadratic, and higher-degree equations; rational, radical, exponential, and logarithmic equations; graphs of functions; models and applications of functions; systems of linear equations; matrices and conic sections; sequences and series; and trigonometry. A graphing calculator is required. (Prerequisite: high school Algebra II with a grade of C or higher [or equivalent], MATH 092C with a grade of C or higher, or by recommendation of the Math/Physics Department) Students who have received credit for this course may not also receive credit for MATH 124C.
