Chapter 1: Equations and Inequalities
  • Linear equations and rational equations
  • Applications and modeling with linear equations
  • Complex numbers
  • Quadratic equations and their applications
  • Other types of equations (radical, absolute value, fractional)
  • Linear inequalities and absolute value inequalities [1, 2, 3]
Chapter 2: Functions and Graphs
  • Basics of functions and their graphs
  • More on functions and their graphs (increasing, decreasing, piecewise)
  • Linear functions and slope
  • Composite and inverse functions
  • Distance and midpoint formulas; circles
  • Modeling with functions and variation [1, 2, 3, 4]
Chapter 3: Polynomial and Rational Functions
