A. What, precalculus algebra? Pre-calculus is just precalculus. You learn equations, conic sections, trigonometry and other important functions and graphs you need to learn before calculus. Pre-calculus is super easy, you just need to stay awake during the course or if you decide to learn at home by yourself.

Take algebra 2 and precalculus at the same time?
Q. For my sophomore year, I've been told that I can take algebra 2 and precalculus at the same time. Math is one of my best subjects, and I think I can handle two math courses. But is this a good idea to be taking two math courses or will I get confused in the classes?

A. It is a good Idea. The Fundimentals you will use in Alg. 2 you will apply and learn more about in Pre. Calc. Also, it is a waste of time and thought not to. I wish i was offered that option, and i suggest taking them both.

When and why did intermediate algebra become "precalculus" and then "calculus"?
Q. As a math lover and an Aspie, I appreciate accuracy in speech and thought. Recently I've noticed my clients refer to intermediate algebra as "precalculus". Sometimes they drop the "pre" and say they're in "calculus". Apparently the courses have begun introducing a few concepts of calculus, such as the difference quotient, into algebra, thus justifying the name. Is calling it "precalculus" supposed to make the students buckle down and really learn algebra, so that they will be ready for calculus? Or does it just intimidate them, since they've always heard how hard calculus is? Do the students actually believe they're in "calculus"? Does calling it "precalculus" really motovate them to master algebra so that they will be ready for real… [cont.]

A. Actually, I think that it's an outgrowth of result-oriented education. As you know, schools used to provide a certain amount of education to students which they could either learn or not, and the ones who didn't learn failed. Nowadays, schools choose certain educational targets that they want to meet, such as having x% of students pass calculus, and then modify the education their students receive to meet that goal. So when schools noticed they didn't get high enough passing rates through the normal algebra - geometry/trig - calculus sequence, they extended it to algebra I - algebra II - geometry - precalculus - calculus, under the theory that if the same material is introduced earlier and spaced over a longer period of time that students… [cont.]

Is college algebra the equivalent of precalculus?
Q. I want to take precalculus over the summer, but I can't find it directly offered at my local community colleges, but they offer analytic geometry and college algebra. I was wondering if I took one of those courses over the summer if it would erase my grade in precalculus from my high school and count as the equivalent of precalculus. It's my junior year, so if I took it as a fall course, that would probably be too late to get rid of my bad scores since college applications are in October.

Should I take precalculus without taking college algebra?
Q. I was supposed to register for college algebra first, and I did for the summer in order to take precalculus during the fall. They cancelled my summer class so now I'm only registrered for the precalculus class but I'm wondering do you think they'll find out and kick me out? What are the chances?

A. If you're good in math and you like it, you should go ahead and take pre-calculus anyway. Chances are they won't kick you out, and if they try, explain the situation. In my high school, students would take pre-calculus right after advanced algebra and they did fine. I wasn't too fond of math and took college algebra instead which was a big waste of time bc the teacher didn't really teach and I didn't really learn anything. However, if your school has a good college algebra teacher and you believe that taking college algebra will help you, then take college algebra during the year.

A. It all builds upon each other. My opinion is if you're good at it but feel like you need a refresher, take it. If anything it might help build your GPA and give you a little room to breathe on other courses that may be harder for you later on. On the other hand, it is also another semester/quarter of math you have to take. Talk to your academic advisor and see what they recommend.

A.

But substituting (8 - x)/2 in place of y, this area equation becomes: Area = x(8-x)/2 This simplifies to (8x -x )/2 or 4x - x . So the simplified area formula for the calculator is y = 4x - x . <== answer The domain is 0 x 8 because those are the only possible values of x where the y value would be positive.

Can I take Linear Algebra after Precalculus?
Q. I am a junior in high school and I'm taking Trigonometry and Precalculus Honors, and have an A in both. Over the summer, I plan on taking Linear Algebra at a community college, and then AP Calculus AB and BC my senior year. Would I be able to handle the course? Meaning, would Linear Algebra be too difficult for someone with little Calculus under their belt? Although I may not have taken Calculus yet, I do understand integration and differentiation, and I have vectors, conics, matrices, exponential/logarithmic functions, polar coordinates, and limits, down. I am asking because it is customary to take Linear Algebra after Calculus 2. Thanks!

A. I would advise against taking linear algebra without having taking Calculus 2. Besides being out of sequence, you should keep in mind that courses in college move at least twice as fast as high school courses, and if it is over the summer, the semester may even be shortened. Finally, check with the community college you are thinking of attending. Many have pre-requisites that MUST be met before you can enroll in a class. Most schools have strict policies and calculus must typically be taken before linear algebra.

Well you will proably have to get your parents involved, but they should just look at your grades, and also maybe there is a test that shows that you are beyond Algebra 2, and can handle Precalculus, i would not be surprized if you could handle more. They really need to let you advance , and not hold you back, and now adays, more and more schools are trying to do that. So i really do not see why you could not just take Precalculus and skip Algebra 2, if you are ready for it.

A. I think learning to write properly would be more important than taking calculus BC. That said, you can learn nearly any high school subject on your own time. I self-studied calculus BC; I'm sure pre-calculus would be even easier. Good luck! Edit: To answer your other question, it's impossible to say yet whether you can get into an elite school this early in your career. Just keep doing your best and see what happens!
