Pre-Calculus
Linear functions: Standard Form & General Form
Outlines procedures for transforming an equation to/from the standard form
y = ax +
These pre-calculus lessons are meant to bridge the gap between Math SN5 and Calculus 1. Many students who go directly from Math SN5 to Calculus 1 have difficulty with some of the algebraic procedures that are essential to Calculus but are not covered in the Quebec SN5 curriculum. These lessons provide a solid foundation that students will need in order to be successful in Calculus. (Additional lessons are in development.)
The primary objectives of these lessons are to provide:
