3.00 Credits
This course is for the student who possesses an adequate background in basic math concepts and skills, but who has never taken an algebra course or who needs a refresher course. Topics covered are operations with signed numbers; algebraic expressions; linear equations/inequalities; exponents; square roots; understanding and manipulating formulas; translating and solving word problems; interpreting/analyzing data and basic graphing techniques; and applications of all skills. Offered every semester. Credits do not count toward degree requirements. Prerequisite: Satisfactory placement test scores as defined by mathematics faculty; or successful completion (grade of C or better) of MATH 070.
-
3.00 Credits
This is an applied course in Euclidean geometry stressing calculator manipulation and problem solving. The topics include linear, area, and solid measures involving US and SI units, solutions of linear equations, proportional relationships, congruent and similar figures, properties of polygons, circles and ellipses. Prerequisites: satisfactory placement test scores as defined by mathematics faculty, or successful completion (grade of C or better) of one year of college preparatory algebra, or successful completion (grade of C or better) of MATH080.
-
3.00 Credits
This is the first college-level algebra course offered at MCC. The course helps students further develop a knowledge foundation of basic algebra concepts that are required to solve problems in all programs of study available at the college. The algebra topics offered are signed numbers; polynomial operations; solutions of linear equations and inequalities involving numerical and literal terms; factoring polynomials; word problems; formula manipulation; graphing linear equations; systems of linear equations and solutions of equations by factoring or the quadratic formula; and an introduction to functions and their related notions. Prerequisites: satisfactory placement test scores as defined by mathematics faculty; successful completion (grade of C or better) MATH080; or permission of the instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to help the student learn the mathematics needed to perform personal and business operations effectively and efficiently. Students will use mathematics in applications involving interest, personal finance, loans, taxes, depreciation, insurance, investments, retailing and accounting practices, and financial statements. Prerequisite: successful completion of MATH080 or its equivalent, with a C or better; or permission of the instructor; or appropriate results of placement test.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides students with the basic algebra and trigonometry manipulatives to compute solutions in their curriculums. The algebra topics offered are signed numbers, polynomial operations, solutions of linear equations involving numerical and literal terms, word problems, and formula manipulation. The trigonometric topics are trigonometric ratios as applied to right triangles and computation of measures in oblique triangles, using the Law of Sines and the Law of Cosines. Prerequisite: successful completion (grade of C or better) of MATH111 or permission of the instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
This course covers the essentials of numerical algebra, geometry and trigonometry by using different problem-solving strategies. A short review of elementary algebra topics will be followed by an introduction of geometric principles and trigonometric functions. The solution of applied problems will require the integration of these topics. The trigonometric topics include trigonometric ratios in solving right triangles and vectors applications, Laws of Sines and Cosines in solving oblique triangles and selected analytic geometry applications (or trigonometric applications in analytic geometry). Prerequisite: satisfactory placement test scores as defined by mathematics faculty or successful completion (grade of C or better) of MATH131; or permission of the instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
This course prepares the student for higher level mathematics by covering topics including exponents; polynomials; factoring; rational expressions; and solving linear, higher degree and rational equations (including the quadratic formula). Quadratic functions, composite and inverse functions are introduced. Solving systems of linear equations of three and more variables by matrices and solving systems of inequalities are covered. Solving of exponential and logarithmic equations are introduced. Prerequisite: satisfactory placement test scores as defined by math faculty, or successful completion (grade of C or better) of MATH131, or permission of the instructor.
-
4.00 Credits
This course provides a mathematical foundation for the understanding of set theory, abstraction, and formal proofs. Topics include sets, subsets and its operations, logic, counting, Boolean algebras, induction, groups, discrete functions, recursion, graphs, trees, and the study of algorithms. Prerequisite: MATH141 with a C or better, placement test or permission of instructor.
-
4.00 Credits
This course covers the following topics: functions, relations, graphs, domain and range, composition of functions, inverse functions; exponential and logarithmic functions and expressions; trigonometric functions; fractions, roots and radicals; complex numbers; and the conic sections. Also includes topics in algebra, geometry and trigonometry. Prerequisite: Satisfactory placement test scores as defined by the mathematics faculty; or MATH141 with C or better; or permission from the instructor.
-
4.00 Credits
This course begins with a review of linear equations, inequalities and systems of equations emphasizing graphing methods. Topics include matrices, linear programming, sets, introduction to probability, the mathematics of finance, and the simplex method.
