3.00 Credits
3 credits (MAT-124) (51-221) Introduces basic modern mathematical tools for the study of applications in business, life, and social sciences. It also provides a more substantial algebraic foundation for those students who wish to continue with Calculus for Management, Life and Social Sciences or College Algebra or those who need a college-level Math course beyond Intermediate Algebra. Linear equations and inequalities, quadratic equations and inequalities, exponential and logarithmic equations, matrices and determinants, systems of equations and applications using linear programming are studied in depth. Note: This course is required for those students wishing to articulate from Tunxis Community College into the Business program at University of Connecticut. Prerequisite: C- or better in Intermediate Algebra OR appropriate placement test score.

4.00 Credits
4 credits (MAT-104) (51-191) Introduction to statistical theory, including the nature of statistical methods, exploratory data analysis, the rules of probability, frequency distributions, probability distributions (binomial, Poisson, hypergeometric, uniform, normal), sampling distributions, estimation and hypothesis testing, oneand two-sample procedures, regression, and correlation. Learning to do statistical analysis using computers is required of all students and is an integral part of the course. Prerequisite: C- or better in Intermediate Algebra OR appropriate placement test score.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits (MAT-116) Involves the higher-level topics in algebra needed for success in Precalculus and, ultimately, the Calculus series. Topics to be included are the following: systems of equations, including two- and three-variable linear systems; matrices, determinants and Cramer's rule; graphing of higher-order functions using transformations, increasing/decreasing intervals, maxima/ minima; inverse functions; graphing of nonlinear inequalities in one and two variables; conic sections; laws of logarithms, exponential and logarithmic functions, solving exponential and logarithmic equations, applications related to exponential and logarithmic functions. The course will introduce and utilize the graphing calculator. Prerequisite: C+ or better in Intermediate Algebra, OR C- or better in Finite Mathematics; OR appropriate placement test score.

4.00 Credits
4 credits (MAT-130) (51-270) Intended to prepare the student for the theory of Calculus I. Extensive work is done with polynomial and rational functions, including the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, Rational Roots Theorem, complete factorization, asymptotes and graphing. Detailed coverage of trigonometric functions (both right triangle and circular) includes graphing, trigonometric identities, the solving of equations, the Laws of Sines and Cosines and Inverse trigonometric functions. Other included topics are DeMoivre's Theorem, polar coordinates, mathematical induction, the algebra of matrices and the Binomial Theorem. The graphing calculator is used when appropriate. Prerequisite: C- or better in College Algebra OR appropriate placement test score.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits (MAT-125) (51-274) Designed for students who plan to major in social, biological, behavioral, or managerial sciences. Topics include techniques of differentiation and integration, together with applications of the derivative and definite integral. Logarithmic and exponential functions are also examined for their applications. Note: Students transferring to University of Connecticut under the Business Articulation Agreement MUST take Finite Mathematics before this course. Prerequisite: C- or better in Finite Mathematics, OR C+ or better in Intermediate Algebra; OR appropriate placement test score.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credits (MAT-131) (51-271) The limit and derivative of a function are developed. Applications include concavity, optimization problems and rectilinear motion. The definite integral and techniques of integration are also further studied. Applications of the definite integral include area under a curve, volumes of solids, arc length, work and center of mass. Prerequisite: C- or better in Precalculus.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credits (MAT-132) (51-272) The logarithmic and exponential functions along with their derivatives and integrals; models of growth and decay; inverse trigonometric and hyperbolic functions and their derivatives; integrals; further techniques of integration; indeterminate forms; improper integrals; infinite series; and power series representation of functions. Topics selected from analytic geometry include rotation of axis. Prerequisite: C- or better in Calculus I.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credits (MAT-210) (51-273) A continuation of Calculus II. Included are vectors, the geometry of space and vector functions, along with applications. Partial differentiation and double and triple integration are undertaken, as well as their applications. Line integrals, Green's Theorem and Stoke's Theorem are included. Prerequisite: C- or better in Calculus II.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits A practical course offering an exposure to a wide range of topics with an emphasis on critical thinking, problem solving and the real number system. Topics may include logic, financial management, set theory, metric system and probability and statistics. This course is intended for students enrolled in Criminal Justice, Business Office Technology, DARC, Human Services, Visual Fine Arts, Photography and Graphic Design. This course may not transfer to most four year colleges. Prerequisites: C- or better in Elementary Algebra Foundations or placement into Intermediate Algebra.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits (21-115) (TC-115) Provides practical explanations of how to interpret engineering/technical drawings using the latest American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standards. Focus is on standardization and quality standards applied in the engineering and technology trades with regard to technical drawings. Prerequisite: C- or better in Elementary Algebra Foundations or appropriate placement test score. Academic Reading AND Writing: Introduction to Composition, OR Introduction to College Reading and Writing, OR Integrated Reading and Writing II.
