This unit goes from natural numbers to solving everyday problems and the need to gradually increase the numerical sets shown. Operations with real numbers are formalized and the existence of imaginary and complex numbers is mentioned. Operating with absolute value‚ scientific notation and logarithms begins. At the end of this unit we will be moving from numerical to symbolic representation to generalize the
