Student Edition algca_(s)
1.0      Students identify and use the arithmetic properties of subsets of integers and rational, irrational, and real numbers, including closure properties for the four basic arithmetic operations where applicable:
1-4, 1-3, 1-4, 2-3, 2-4, 2-5, 2-6, 3-2, 4-1, 4-3, 14-1, 14-4
1.1      Students use properties of numbers to demonstrate whether assertions are true or false.
1-3, 1-4, 2-1, 2-4
2.0*      Students understand and use such operations as taking the opposite, finding the reciprocal, taking a root, and raising to a fractional power. They understand and use the rules of exponents.
2-3, 2-4, 4-3, 8-2, 8-3, 8-5, 8-6
3.0*      Students solve equations and inequalities involving absolute values.
3-7, 12-6
4.0*   Students simplify expressions before solving linear equations and inequalities in one variable, such as 3(2x - 5) + 4(x - 2) = 12.
, 1-3, 1-4, 3-4, 3-6, 4-1, 4-4, 4-5, 4-6, 4-7, 12-2, 12-3, 12-4
5.0*   Students solve multistep problems, including word problems, involving linear equations and linear inequalities in one variable and provide justification for each step.
3-4, 3-6, 3-7, 4-5, 4-6, 4-7, 5-1, 12-2, 12-4
6.0*   Students graph a linear equation and compute the x-and y-intercepts (e.g., graph 2x + 6y = 4). They are also able to sketch the region defined by linear inequality (e.g., they sketch the region defined by 2x + 6y < 4).
7-5, 7-6, 12-7
7.0*   Students verify that a point lies on a line, given an equation of the line. Students are able to derive linear equations by using the point-slope formula.
6-2, 7-2, 7-3
8.0*   Students understand the concepts of parallel lines and perpendicular lines and how those slopes are related. Students are able to find the equation of a line perpendicular to a given line that passes through a given point.
7-7
9.0*   Students solve a system of two linear equations in two variables algebraically and are able to interpret the answer graphically. Students are able to solve a system of two linear inequalities in two variables and to sketch the solution sets.
13-1, 13-2, 13-3, 13-4, 13-5, 13-7
10.0*   Students add, subtract, multiply, and divide monomials and polynomials. Students solve multistep problems, including word problems, by using these techniques.
1-4, 4-1, 8-2, 9-2, 9-3, 9-4, 9-5, 15-3
11.0   Students apply basic factoring techniques to second-and simple third-degree polynomials. These techniques include finding a common factor for all terms in a polynomial, recognizing the difference of two squares, and recognizing perfect squares of binomials.
10-2, 10-3, 10-4, 10-5
12.0   Students simplify fractions with polynomials in the numerator and denominator by factoring both and reducing them to the lowest terms.
15-1
13.0   Students add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational expressions and functions. Students solve both computationally and conceptually challenging problems by using these techniques.
15-2, 15-3, 15-4, 15-5, 15-6
14.0   Students solve a quadratic equation by factoring or completing the square.
11-4,11-5
15.0*   Students apply algebraic techniques to solve rate problems, work problems, and percent mixture problems.
5-4, 6-5, 6-6, 13-3, 13-5
16.0   Students understand the concepts of a relation and a function, determine whether a given relation defines a function, and give pertinent information about given relations and functions.
6-1, 6-2, 6-4
17.0   Students determine the domain of independent variables and the range of dependent variables defined by a graph, a set of ordered pairs, or a symbolic expression.
6-1, 6-2, 6-4
18.0   Students determine whether a relation defined by a graph, a set of ordered pairs, or a symbolic expression is a function and justify the conclusion.
6-4
19.0   Students know the quadratic formula and are familiar with its proof by completing the square.
11-6
20.0   Students use the quadratic formula to find the roots of a second-degree polynomial and to solve quadratic equations.
11-6
21.0   Students graph quadratic functions and know that their roots are the x-intercepts.
11-3
22.0   Students use the quadratic formula or factoring techniques or both to determine whether the graph of a quadratic function will intersect the x-axis in zero, one, or two points.
11-4, 11-6
23.0   Students apply quadratic equations to physical problems, such as the motion of an object under the force of gravity.
11-3, 11-4, 11-5, 11-6
24.3   Students use counterexamples to show that an assertion is false and recognize that a single counterexample is sufficient to refute an assertion.
1-3, 1-4, 12-3, 14-1
25.0   Students use properties of the number system to judge the validity of results, to justify each step of a procedure, and to prove or disprove statements:
1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 12-3
25.1   Students use properties of numbers to construct simple, valid arguments (direct and indirect) for, or formulate counterexamples to, claimed assertions.
1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 4-3, 4-5, 7-3, 9-1, 12-3, 14-1
25.2   Students judge the validity of an argument according to whether the properties of the real number system and the order of operations have been applied correctly at each step.
1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 8-2, 8-3
25.3   Given a specific algebraic statement involving linear, quadratic, or absolute value expressions or equations or inequalities, students determine whether the statement is true sometimes, always, or never.
