1 Credit(s)

Prerequisite(s): MTH 20 or designated placement.

Corequisite(s): MTH 60

Course Description: Designed for students currently enrolled in MTH 60, this optional course provides additional help with the material presented in MTH 60, which introduces the study and application of the real numbers, operations with real numbers, exponents, order of operations, mathematical modeling, solving linear equations, methods of problem solving, rates, slope, graphs of lines, equations of lines, and systems of linear equations. Working with real data, formulas, and applications will be stressed. Course is graded on a pass/no pass basis. Course does not transfer.

Course Level: Postsecondary Remedial Math

Course Learning Outcomes:

CLO#1: Apply the powerful concept of a variable in linear relationships (patterns) in the form of tables, graphs, equations and verbal descriptions; and be able to move comfortably between them. (ILO: Quantitative literacy & reasoning)
CLO#2: Investigate, model, and solve real world algebra problems that require an understanding of linear relationships.
CLO#3: Use appropriate technology to solve linear problems and applications and judge the reasonableness of their results.
