| Course Content: This course will focus on
strengthening your skills in
algebra so many of the topics may seem familiar to
you. Studying algebra is an example of spiral learning where
important concepts are visited again but at a deeper level.
In Math 105 you will be asked to use algebra to model and
solve problems. This will be accomplished through the study
of linear, quadratic, polynomial, exponential, and
logarithmic functions.
