Overview
Algebra 1A introduces students to the fundamental concepts and skills of algebra. Students work with variables, expressions, real numbers, equations, and inequalities before progressing to linear functions and their graphs. The course emphasizes writing and graphing linear equations, understanding slope and rates of change, parallel and perpendicular lines, and solving systems of linear equations and inequalities. Throughout the course, students apply algebraic concepts to real-world situations and develop a strong foundation for more advanced algebra.
