MATH 124E - College Algebra Expanded

Practical applications are the focal point of this course. Topics include equations and inequalities; linear, quadratic, polynomial, exponential and logarithmic functions and their graphs; solutions of systems of linear equations; matrices; and sequences and series.

PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:

• This course does NOT serve as a prerequisite for MATH 127  nor is it sufficiently rigorous for entry into calculus.
• CSN offers this course only as a 5-credit combination course of MATH 124E (3 credits) and the MATH 24 (2-credit) co-requisite course.
• This course serves as a prerequisite for MATH 132, STAT 152, and MATH 176.
