MTH 070 Introductory Algebra
This course is a fast-paced review of algebra for students with recent algebra experience. For students without recent algebra experience, MTH 060 and
MTH 065 provide a more relaxed and thorough introduction to the subject. (Qualified students who are unsure whether to take
MTH 070 or
MTH 060 should seek the advice of an academic advisor.) MTH 070 prepares students for Intermediate Algebra (
MTH 095). Topics include a selective review of arithmetic, tables and graphs, signed numbers, problem solving, linear equations, linear inequalities, ratios and proportions, unit analysis, systems of linear equations, polynomials, factoring, quadratic equations, introduction to functions, rational expressions, and exponents.
