This course meets the needs of students with myriad levels of mathematical experience by providing support for learning prerequisite skills. This course is delivered as a combination of lecture along with structured activities intended to give students the experience of doing mathematics on their own or in groups with instructor guidance. The algebra objectives of the course include factoring polynomials; simplifying radicals; operations on rational expressions; writing equations of lines and circles; solving and graphing the solutions of linear and quadratic inequalities; solving systems of linear equations; solving quadratic, absolute value, radical, rational, exponential, and logarithmic equations; and properties and analysis of relations, functions and their graphs. Applications appear throughout the course.
This course, in conjunction with MAC1140, is designed to prepare the student for the study of calculus. Topics include a functional approach to trigonometry, trigonometric equations, trigonometric identities, solving triangles, vectors, polar coordinates and equations, and parametric equations. A graphing calculator may be required. Recommendation of the Mathematics Department or at least a grade of "C in the prerequisite course is required.
This course, in conjunction with MAC1114, is designed to prepare the student for the study of calculus. Topics include sequences, series matrices, determinants, conic sections and systems of equations. Also included are polynomial, rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions and equations; and polynomial and rational and absolute value inequalities. Functions and graphs are emphasized. A graphing calculator may be required. Recommendation of the Mathematics Department or at least a grade of "C" in the prerequisite course is required.
This course is designed to satisfy the dual requirements of MAC1114 and MAC1140, thus preparing the student for the study of calculus. In this course the student will study various function families (e.g. polynomial, exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric) from both analytic and graphical viewpoints, and will use them to model real-life situations. The student will be exposed to additional topics that will deepen their mathematical understanding, including systems, matrices and determinates, sequences and series, parametric equations, and polar coordinates and equations. A graphing calculator may be required. Recommendation of the Mathematics Department or at least a grade of "B" in the prerequisite course is required.
This is a general education course which includes the college-level skills of calculus such as: functions, graphs, limits, differentiation, integration, average and instantaneous rates of change, and other applications. Recommendation of the Mathematics Department or at least a grade of C" in the prerequisite course is required.
