Accuplacer Math

Course Description:

The Accuplacer Courses were developed by aligning Plato Courseware with the content dimensions addressed on the Next-Generation Accuplacer tests. Each unit in the Accuplacer Math course aligns to multiple content dimensions on the Accuplacer Math Test. This course consists of three units that will help you identify your mathematical strengths and weaknesses and polish your math skills. The first unit focuses on basic arithmetic concepts such as operations with rational numbers and decimals. The second unit introduces you to topics such as the use of variables to solve equations, inequalities, and algebraic expressions, and the application of geometric formulas to solve problems. The third unit will help improve your skills in solving algebraic equations and inequalities, interpreting polynomial functions, and using trigonometric ratios and the Pythagorean Theorem. The courseís tests will help you practice what you have learned.
