MAT 125 - Calculus for Business and the Social Sciences

Institution:

The College of New Jersey

Subject:

Description:

Prerequisite: MAT 096 or an SAT math score at least 650 See http://mathstat.pages.tcnj.edu/courses-2/calculus-requirement for details. This course provides students with a solid grounding in the main aspects of calculus. The course is designed for students in the Social Sciences and the School of Business. Topics include the major aspects of differential and integral calculus, some multivariable calculus, and the uses to which these are put. It differs from MAT 127 (the calculus course for science, mathematics and engineering majors) in that there is less focus on theory, more focus on business applications, and a narrower range of topics. In particular, MAT 125 does not cover trigonometric, inverse trigonometric or hyperbolic trigonometric functions, which are covered in MAT 127, and MAT 127 does not necessarily cover topics such as marginal cost/profit or continuous interest which are covered in MAT 125.
