Do you really need college algebra if you took algebra1 and algebra 2 and passed it?

Your need for mathematical skills will depend heavily upon your chosen profession. Some people use algebra a lot, and others don't use it at all. If you are going into a scientific field you will need to learn calculus, and to do that you will need a good grasp of algebra, geometry, and trigonometry.

What are the four math classes that you need for college?
You mean, in high school, to prepare for college? The courses taught in high school will probably vary from one country to another, and from one college to another, but typically include algebra, geometry, trigonometry (which might be included in algebra), and perhaps a few others, such as a second algebra course. You don't really need any of these for college, unless you study some sort of engineering in college. In college itself, if you DO study engineering, you'll need several advanced math subjects.
What is the difference between Algebra 2 and Pre calculus?
Im currently taking Pre Calculus and took Algebra 2 last year. To be honest, there really is no difference, there are only three new chapters of content we didnt go over last year in the whole book. If you passed Algebra 2 you'll pass Pre Calculus.

What does X mean in algebra?
x usually is the unknown that is the factor you have to solve for. It can be any letter but it commonly x. I know this because I had the hardest time in algebra in college. In fact I hated it and really can't remember much more than that. Good Luck I hope you have a much better teacher than I had.
Is calculus hard if you are excellent in basic algebra?
Not really. Of course, you'll have to learn some new concepts - just as when you learned algebra.

No, not really. Calculus uses algebra to solve equations, but calculus is a branch of mathematics all its own.
What to do if you hate being in Pre- Algebra but you want to be in Algebra in Middle school?
If you want to be in Algebra in Middle School that badly then I would say deal. If you really hate it then you should stop taking that class, if you can.
What colleges do not require college algebra to get a degree?
I went to University of Ky and did not want to study math at all. I went to the Dean and asked what I could do. After listening to all the reasons to NOT drop math. I finally was able to get them to drop it. I only had to sign a paper that stated I did not hold them responsible for my math abilities. It was quite easy. The hardest part was all the "talks" from them trying to change my mind. The Dean can help you.

How do you solve projectile motion problems using algebra?
A projectile has vectors. This can be put in x and y. If it's simple physics, there is really not much algebra.
