MATH 127 - Advanced College Algebra 4 CR
This is a preparatory course in the calculus sequence where functions will be explored geometrically, numerically, symbolically, and in written form thorough verbal descriptions. Emphasis will be placed on modeling of real-life problems using different types of functions such as linear, higher-degree-polynomial, rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions. Students will develop algebraic proficiency and inquiry through reading, writing and problem solving in an interactive classroom environment.
Requisites: Next Gen ACCUPLACER® quantitative reason score of at least 250, or Next Gen ACCUPLACER® adv alg and functions score of at least 237, or ALEKS PPL score of 46, or MATH 105 with at least a grade of B, or one (1) course from MATH 111 , MATH 112 , MATH 125C , MATH 125 , MATH 127, MATH 132 , MATH 140 , MATH 142 , MATH 241 , or MATH 242 with at least a grade of C.
