MATH 50 Algebra - Advanced Level

MATH 50: Algebra � Advanced Level is for students to upgrade their mathematics skills. Students will begin with an algebraic skills review and move on to develop skills in solving and graphing linear equations and inequalities, relations and functions, and systems of linear equations and inequalities. They will study operations with polynomials and polynomial functions, rational expressions and equations, radical expressions and equations, quadratic equations and functions and be introduced to trigonometric functions. Upon completion of Math 50, students are ready to enter Math 60 (Pre-calculus 12 equivalent) or non-science or career post-secondary programs. This course qualifies for the BC Adult Graduation Diploma. This course is the equivalent to Pre-calculus 11.
