Algebra 1 begins with one-variable statistics, focusing on data collection, analysis, and interpretation to understand quantities in context. Students then study linear equations and systems to model relationships, writing, evaluating, graphing, and solving them. This leads to two-variable statistics, examining relationships using tables, scatter plots, and linear models. They also solve and graph linear inequalities.

Students deepen their understanding of functions by representing and interpreting them using function notation, domain/range, rate of change, and graph features. They explore linear, piecewise, exponential, and quadratic functions, investigating real-world contexts and analyzing their structural attributes.

The course concludes with quadratic equations, where students use reasoning, equivalent equations, and the quadratic formula to model relationships and solve problems, encountering rational and irrational solutions.
