    Prerequisite: MATH 32 with a grade of "C" or better or placementthrough the assessment process. Hours: 90 hours LEC This course includes the fundamental concepts and operations of algebra with problem solving skills emphasized. Topics include properties of real numbers, linear equations and inequalities, integer exponents, polynomials, and factoring polynomials. Other topics include rational exponents and rational/radical expressions with associated equations. Additional topics introducing the rectangular coordinate system, focus on graphs and equations of lines, systems of linear equations/inequalities, and solving quadratic equations. AA/ AS area 4C.
  • 3.00 - 5.00 Credits

    Advisory: Determine or confi rm placement using ARC's Math Self- Assessment System. Hours: 90 hours LEC This program is an open-entry/open-exit, independent study approach for students wishing to take MATH 25 (Computational Arithmetic, 3 units), MATH 32 (Prealgebra, 3 units), MATH 100 (Elementary Algebra, 5 units), or MATH 120 (Intermediate Algebra, 5 units). During the fi rst class meeting, students choose the specifi c course in which to enroll. For students who do not have a prerequisite, course placement should be determined by ARC's on-line selfassessment system. Students who complete one course may advance immediately to the next one. Students may choose to complete a course in one semester (or less), or take up to two semesters. Unit credit is only awarded for the semester in which the course is completed. Students who receive a notation of "In Progress" must registerin the same individualized course the following semester in order to complete the course and receive full unit credit. Computer-based instruction is an integral component. Work may be done on campus (computers available) or off campus (software runs on PC Windows or Macintosh w/virtual PC software.
