Mathematical Models with Applications (One Credit)
Prerequisite: Algebra I (This course must be taken before receiving credit for Algebra II)
Mathematical Models with Applications is designed to build on the knowledge and skills for mathematics in grades K-8
and Algebra I. This mathematics course provides a path for students to succeed in Algebra II and prepares them for
various post-secondary choices. Students learn to apply mathematics through experiences in personal finance, science,
engineering, fine arts, and social sciences. Students use algebraic, graphical, and geometric reasoning to recognize
patterns and structure, model information, solve problems, and communicate solutions. Students will select from tools
such as physical objects; manipulatives; technology, including graphing calculators, data collection devices, and
computers; and paper and pencil and from methods such as algebraic techniques, geometric reasoning, patterns, and
mental math to solve problems.
