TThe purpose of this course is to develop the algebraic concepts and processes that can be used to solve a variety of real-world and mathematical problems. Upon successful completion of this course a student will understand operations with real numbers, linear equations, inequalities, relations, and functions. Students will also be able to solve pairs of linear equations and inequalities, polynomials, algebraic fractions, and exponents and radicals.

Honors level courses require students to utilize higher order thinking skills such as analysis and synthesis, while completing more rigorous assignments. In addition, more emphasis is placed on research mastery and project based learning.
