MATH 86 Algebraic Applications for Career Technical Education

Units: 4
Advisories: MATH 90 Beginning Algebra.
This course uses the procedural, analytical and critical thinking skills from Elementary Algebra to explore mathematics in a variety of applications. Topics covered include (but are not limited to) consumer mathematics, statistics, unit conversions and geometry. This course satisfies the Language and Rationality Group B requirement in the General Education pattern for the Associate Degrees, but it is not appropriate for students planning to transfer to a four-year college. It will not satisfy the prerequisite for a higher level math course.
