Liberal Arts Mathematics 2
OVERVIEW
Get ready to dive in to Liberal Arts Math 2 through interactive video-based content. Successful completion of Algebra 1 and Geometry is required. Additionally, most districts recommend successful completion of Algebra 2 in their pupil progression plan to fully extend key concepts and prepare you for your mathematical future. Please check your district’s plan to determine if Algebra 2 is a prerequisite for this course. If such a plan is not available, Florida Virtual School recommends successful completion of Algebra 2 prior to enrolling in Liberal Arts Math 2.
The course incorporates the Florida Standards for Mathematical Practice, as well as the following Florida Standards for Mathematical Content: Rational Numbers, Seeing Structure in Expressions, Reasoning with Equations and Inequalities, Interpreting Functions, Arithmetic with Polynomials and Rational Expressions, Linear, Quadratic, and Exponential Models, Expressing Geometric Properties with Equations, Conditional Probability and the Rules of Probability, and Making Inferences and Justifying Conclusions.
This is an excellent third or fourth year math course and is accepted by Bright Futures and SUS, but is not NCAA approved at this time.
