==Description==
  
−
Starting with one particular textbook we created a set of topics that are covered in a typical college algebra course. We have not organized these by chapters so that any person teaching from any textbook could use these in any order they needed. We then used the NPL to populate those topics with problems that exist. This led us to trying to decide how to combine some of those groups so that they would be more user friendly. We also started to write some problems to cover areas that are not covered or thinly covered by the NPL, as well as trying to get some sort of order of difficulty in the numbering.
 
−
This will be an ongoing and evolving project as we have already had to revamp some of our original ideas.

General Description

  • 2013 Contributors: Alex Basyrov, John Williams, Shumei Richman
  • 2011 Contributors: Alex Basyrov, Pangyen Weng, Audrey Battrum, Shumei Richman
  • Freshman level college algebra course

Possible textbooks include, but are not limited to:

  • Michael Sullivan and Michael Sullivan III. College Algebra—Enhanced with Graphing Utilities, Fifth Edition. Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice-Hall, Inc., 2009.

Notes on Possible Use of the Problem Sets

  • There are probably more problems in the problem sets that one would want to use in a real course. The assumption was that it is easy to remove any problems that one does not want to use.
  • Course topics roughly correspond to numbers (01, 02, 03, etc.) in homework sets
  • Some of the larger topics are split into smaller subtopics -- in that case there is a letter attached to the number (a, b, c, etc.) to make it homework set 05a, 05b, etc.

Topics Covered

  • Linear Equations
  • Quadratic Equations
  • Equations Quadratic In Form
  • Radical Equations
  • Lines and Circles and their graphs
  • Functions and Their Graphs
  • Inverse Functions
  • Linear Functions, Their Properties, and Linear Models
  • Quadratic Functions and Their Properties
  • Inequalities Involving Quadratic Functions
