Description
Algebra II is the fork in the road. Those who succeed in this second part of the algebra sequence are well on their way to calculus and higher mathematics, which open the door to careers in science, engineering, medicine, economics, information technology, and many other fields. Algebra II starts by reviewing functions, graphing, and polynomials from Algebra I, and then introduces new topics, such as conic sections, roots and radicals, exponential and logarithmic functions, and elementary probability. Taking mathematics education to the next level and sharpening problem-solving skills in linear and quadratic equations, Algebra II explains the tools of this core skill, the mathematics that underlies the sciences and our technological world.
