Pre-requisite

Algebra 2

Course description

The Applications of Mathematics course will further develop students’ understanding of mathematical concepts and extend problem-solving strategies and skills to apply mathematics in routine and non-routine contexts. Students will refine algebraic and trigonometric concepts studied in Algebra 2 and will be introduced to essential applications of mathematics used to make financial decisions. Units include extended applications of linear and nonlinear systems of equations; exponential growth and decay functions; trigonometric relationships; and business and finance applications. Technology; including graphing calculators (TI-84+) and spreadsheet applications; will be used to support coursework. Applications of Mathematics is designed to prepare students for the study of entry-level college mathematics and to support students’ abilities to make mathematically informed decisions relating to business and finance.
