Precalculus: the Mathematics of Numbers, Functions and Equations
Get an introduction to precalculus fundamentals
This course is the first of two precalculus courses from the University of Padova, providing you with an introduction to the fundamental mathematical skills required to complete a first course in calculus.
You’ll get familiar with the basic precalculus required for college or undergraduate-level studies, notably: factoring and division; sets and set operations; reasoning and proofs; functions and graphs; and equations and inequalities.
Through this course you’ll gain the foundation to support further mathematical studies, or improve your use of mathematics in everyday life.
This course is for anyone who wants to brush up on their basic mathematical skills, particularly students in the last year of high school, or at the beginning of undergraduate studies, who intend to take a first course in calculus.
