Course Description
This can be a third or fourth-year high school course that extends algebra and geometry into practical, real-world applications in areas such as business, social sciences, and everyday decision-making. Topics to be covered will include counting techniques, basic probability and statistics, basic linear programming, matrices, set theory, and logic.
Emphasis is placed on mathematical reasoning, interpreting results in context, and communicating solutions clearly, helping students strengthen quantitative skills needed for college and careers in Tennessee. While Algebra 1, Geometry and Algebra 2 are a prerequisite, this course is designed to proceed at a slower, more manageable pace to ensure accessibility and success for all students who need a math after Algebra 2.
