3 sem hrs cr

This course is a study of the properties of the real number system, arithmetic operations with rational numbers and order of operations; evaluation and simplification of variable expressions; solutions of linear equations and inequalities in one variable; graphing linear equations and inequalities; solving systems of linear equations and inequalities; problem solving; polynomial arithmetic; operations with integer exponents; GCF factoring.

  Prerequisite or Corequisite: Students enrolled in MATH 0810 must also be enrolled in MATH 1003 during the same semester.

MATH 0810 is the mandatory co-requisite course for those Learning Support Mathematics students enrolled in MATH 1003. A learning support course is required for students whose ACT or ACCUPLACER mathematics scores indicate a need for co-requisite mathematics coursework. Topics include the real number system: arithmetic operations; equations and inequalities; graphing; problem solving; polynomial arithmetic; exponents; factoring.

Students must demonstrate mastery of all required competencies in order to earn a passing grade. Any degree seeking student enrolled in a Learning Support course must also enroll in MSCC 1300, First Year Experience, during his or her first semester.
