MAT 8001 – Math Fundamentals
What is this course all about?
Students review the manipulation of algebraic expressions as foundation for advanced mathematical concepts. Students solve 2×2 and 3×3 systems of linear equations, and factor algebraic expressions using common factors and techniques for factoring trinomials. They simplify, add, subtract, multiply and divide rational expressions and solve equations involving algebraic fractions. Students study the trigonometry of right triangles and solve trigonometric problems involving both acute and obtuse angles in standard position. Linear, quadratic and trigonometric functions are graphed using a table of values. Delivered in a modular format, this course is equivalent to the completion of all of the following math modules: MAT8100 – A,B,C,E,K and T.
