Publisher McDougall Littell recently discontinued the required textbook for this course; however, used copies are still available for purchase. Due to this change in text availability, Duke TIP is offering a special sale price for Algebra 2.

This course corresponds to a one-year high school Algebra 2 course. Beginning with a review of basic algebraic concepts, the course moves on to cover such topics as systems of equations, matrices and determinants, and exponential, logarithmic, and polynomial functions. The coursepack concludes with an optional "Real World Applications" section. Course materials include a detailed syllabus with assignments from each section in the textbook, 13 quizzes, three midterm exams, a final exam, and answer keys.
