MA 120. Intermediate Algebra with Review

Credits: 5
Prerequisite(s): A score at a predetermined level on a placement instrument or MA 060 or its equivalent with a C or better.

This course will enable the student to interpret mathematical symbols and notation, simplify expressions, factor polynomials, solve equations (including quadratic and rational equations, and systems of linear equations), perform operations on radical expressions, write equations of lines, and evaluate functions. This course incorporates some review topics and moves at a slower pace than MA 125.
