Pre-Algebra B
Course Overview
Students will expand their understanding of the properties of real numbers, solve linear equations and inequalities, and use data analysis techniques.
In the second half of the K12 Pre-Algebra sequence, students continue to build their Algebra skills. The best preparation for this course is Pre-Algebra A.
Students will:
- Change word phrases and sentences into mathematical expressions and equations.
- Add, subtract, multiply, and divide positive and negative rational numbers in decimal and fraction form.
- Use several transformations to solve equations and inequalities.
- Study points, lines, planes, polygons, and circles.
- Solve problems involving percents, ratios, and proportions.
- Graph equations, inequalities, and systems of equations.
- Calculate areas of plane figures and volumes and surface areas of space figures.
- Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to solve triangles and compute basic trigonometric ratios.
- Calculate statistical measures and expected value.
- Compute the probability of overlapping, independent, and dependent events.
- Add, subtract, multiply, and divide polynomials and monomials.
