Check with your public schools, adult education division, to see if they have anything. I was able to get beginning Algebra in a 9-week long, Saturday course here locally at a high school, that was enough for me to get caught up, pass the college entrance test, and go right into Intermediate.
If you want to talk time delay, it had been more than 45 years since I had algebra. Of course, it took dedication and hard work but is possible.
The cost was about $95 + $10 for a used book versus taking a course at the college that would NOT count toward any of the credits and combined costs would have been more like $400 or $450.
Check out all of your options. Maybe there is a private tutor who would be able to help you but that adds up. Another thought, a high school or college student who is willing to work with you. Lots of good used books on the internet to choose from but get the teacher edition.
