3.00 Credits
(4 class hrs/wk, 4 cr) F/W/Sp/Su Designed for the student who is familiar with elementary algebra, as well as basic geometry and statistics (see MTH 065). Topics include graphing quadratic, exponential, logarithmic and other functions; multiplying and factoring polynomials; performing operations with rational expressions; solving systems of linear equations; solving quadratic equations by factoring; performing arithmetic with complex numbers; developing and applying mathematical models. Problem solving is emphasized throughout the course. Application problems are realistic with some data to be collected, analyzed and discussed in a group setting with results submitted in written form. A minimum competency level is required to pass this course. Note: Students use graphing calculators in this course. Prerequisite: MTH 065 Elementary Algebra or equivalent.

3.00 Credits
(4 class hrs/wk, 4 cr) F/W/Sp/Su Presents applied, informal geometry for students who did not take geometry in high school or who need a thorough review. Includes problem solving, geometric shapes, angle measure, perimeter, area and volume, congruence and similarity, circles, basic constructions and an introduction to right triangle trigonometry. Prerequisite: MTH 095 Intermediate Algebra or equivalent.
-
3.00 Credits
(4 class hrs/wk, 4 cr) W/Sp A survey course in mathematics for students in the liberal arts and other nonscience majors. Topics are selected from areas such as management science, statistics, social choice, the geometry of size and shape, and computers and their applications. Emphasizes the application of mathematics to the problems of contemporary society and the critical role these applications play in economic, political and personal life. Prerequisites: MTH 095 Intermediate Algebra or equivalent.
-
3.00 Credits
(5 class hrs/wk, 5 cr) F/W/Sp/Su Explores relations and linear, quadratic, exponential, polynomial, rational and logarithmic functions. Includes theory of equations, matrices and determinants. Prerequisites: MTH 095 Intermediate Algebra or equivalent.
-
