Course Evaluation Outline – MAT FND 11
Dates of Course: Feb 5 – Apr 10
Teacher: K Wheatley, J MacLellan & J Henley
General Outcomes
1. Can the student apply Linear
Programming to evaluate and
make decisions?
Students should be able to:
1a. demonstrate an
understanding of the relationship
between arithmetic operations and
operations on equations and
inequalities;
1b. find constraints for the
variables in problems;
1c. represent these constraints
using table of values, graphs, or
equations;
1d. solve systems of linear
equations using graphs or algebraic
methods;
1e. use linear programming to
find the best, or optimal, solution
to a problem involving constraints.
