Grade 9 - Florida Mathematics
Florida Algebra I A - Semester 1 (Credit: 0.50)Algebra is a branch of mathematics that uses symbols in place of numbers to describe and generalize relationships. In Florida Algebra IA, you will explore relationships between mathematical quantities, how to reason with equations and inequalities, graphing, functions, and mathematical modeling. You will build on your knowledge of variables, exponents, expressions, and algebraic terminology by applying algebra to real-world situations.
Florida Algebra I B - Semester 2 (Credit: 0.50)Algebra is a branch of mathematics that uses symbols in place of numbers to describe and generalize relationships. In Algebra IA you worked with expressions containing monomials and binomials. In Algebra IB you’ll extend these ideas to factor and perform operations on polynomial expressions containing more than two terms. Many of the equations that you solved in Algebra IA were linear, or proportional. In Algebra IB you’ll solve quadratic equations. In quadratic equations, the highest power on a variable is 2. You’ll study the parabola, a conic section defined by a quadratic equation. You’ll build your graphing skills by analyzing and plotting different types of functions: absolute value functions, piecewise functions, exponential functions, and logarithmic functions. Finally, you’ll study statistics as you interpret the shapes of data distributions and delve into correlation and causation.
Florida Financial Algebra A (Credit: 0.50)Florida Financial Algebra is designed to instruct students in algebraic thinking while also preparing them to navigate a number of financial applications. Students will explore how algebraic knowledge is connected to many financial situations, including investing, using credit, paying taxes, and shopping for insurance. In studying these topics, students will learn about the linear, exponential, and quadratic relationships that apply to financial applications. In addition, the course will help prepare students to tackle the wide variety of financial decisions they will face in life, from setting up their first budget to planning for retirement.

Florida Mathematics for College Liberal Arts A (Credit: 0.50)Mathematics for College Liberal Arts provides a math curriculum focused on developing the mastery of skills identified as critical to postsecondary readiness in math. This elective is aligned with Florida's Benchmarks for Excellent Students Thinking (B.E.S.T.) in mathematics and emphasizes instruction with applicability in real-world context.
Course topics include a review of algebra concepts; functions and sequences; systems of equations; data and mathematical modeling; descriptive statistics; logic and reasoning; geometric principles of measurement and congruency, and applications of probability.
A variety of activities allow for students to think mathematically in a variety of scenarios and tasks. In Discussions, students exchange and explain their mathematical ideas. Modeling activities ask them to analyze real-world scenarios and mathematical concepts. Journaling activities have students reason abstractly and quantitatively, construct arguments, critique reasoning, and communicate precisely. And in Performance Tasks, students synthesize their knowledge in novel, real-world scenarios, make sense of multifaceted problems, and persevere in solving them.
