  • 1.00 Credits

    1 credit Prerequisite: MTH 020 or equivalent courses with a grade of "C-" or better, or pass a placement test through the Testing Office. Prerequisite grades or test scores must have been completed within the past four terms. A self-paced course under the supervision of an instructor. The course provides hands-on experience in metric measurement and encourages metric common sense: the ability to estimate and think in metric units, metric prefixes, metric symbols, conversion of units, temperature, length, mass, and volume.
  • 1.00 Credits

    Word Problems in Algebra
  • 1.00 - 4.00 Credits

    1-4 credits Prerequisite: MTH 020 or equivalent course with a grade of "C-" or better or pass a placement test through the Testing Office. Prerequisite grades or test scores must have been completed within the past four terms. If you have taken a higher level math course than this and passed the course with a "C-" or better, you may not use this course for your degree/certificate requirements. This course is for the student who has not taken algebra recently, or who desires a slow-paced introduction to the subject. This is the first term of a two-term sequence in introductory algebra. Topics include a selective review of arithmetic, tables and graphs, signed numbers, problem solving, linear equations, ratio and proportion, and unit analysis. MTH 060 prepares students for Elementary Algebra, MTH 065. MTH 060 and MTH 065 provide a two-term sequence preparatory to Intermediate Algebra, MTH 095. A scientific calculator is required. Students wishing to take Mth 060 in a variable credit, self-paced format must obtain instructor permission prior to registering. This permission can be obtained in the Math Resource Center on the first day of classes or just prior to the beginning of the term.
  • 1.00 - 4.00 Credits

    1-4 credits Prerequisite: MTH 060 or equivalent course with a grade of "C-" or better. Prerequisite grades must have been completed within the past four terms. If you have taken a higher level math course than this and passed the course with a "C-" or better, you may not use this course for your degree/certificate requirements. This is the second term of a two-term sequence in introductory algebra. Students having successfully completed MTH 060 should continue with this course in preparation for taking Intermediate Algebra, MTH 095. Topics include systems of linear equations, polynomials, factoring, quadratic equations, rational expressions, exponents, and radicals. A scientific calculator is required. Students wishing to take MTH 065 in a variable credit, self-paced format must obtain instructor permission prior to registering. This permission can be obtained in the Math Resource Center on the first day of classes or just prior to the beginning of the term.
  • 5.00 Credits

    5 credits Prerequisite: 1) Recent experience in algebra, such as an eleventh grade high school algebra course completed within the last three years; and 2) MTH 020 or equivalent course with a grade of "C-" or better or pass a placement test through the Testing Office. Prerequisite grades or test scores must have been completed within the past four terms. If you have taken a higher level math course than this and passed the course with a "C-" or better, you may not use this course for your degree/certificate requirements. MTH 070 is a fast paced review of algebra for students with recent algebra experience. For students without recent algebra experience, MTH 060 and MTH 065 provide a more relaxed and thorough introduction to the subject. (Students who are unsure whether to take MTH 070 or MTH 060 should seek the advice of a Counselor or Advisor.) MTH 070 prepares students for Intermediate Algebra, MTH 095. Topics include a selective review of arithmetic, tables and graphs, signed numbers, problem solving, linear equations, ratio and proportion, unit analysis, systems of linear equations, polynomials, factoring, quadratic equations, rational expressions, exponents, and radicals. A scientific calculator is required.
  • 1.00 - 2.00 Credits

    Informal Geometry
  • 4.00 Credits

    4 credits Prerequisite: MTH 020 with a grade of "C-" or better or pass a placement test through the Testing Office. Prerequisite grades or test scores must have been completed within the past four terms. MTH 076 Applied Geometry includes the following: angle measure, properties of systems with parallel , perpendicular and oblique lines; perimeter and area of polygons and circles; surface area and volume of solid figures such as prisms and pyramids; similarity, ratio, and proportion; right triangle trigonometry; linear, square, and cubic units; and dimensional analysis in metric and US customary measures. Algebra will be introduced as needed to work with proportions and formulas. The course will emphasize applications encountered in technical-professional programs and clear communication of mathematical results.
  • 4.00 Credits

    4 credits Prerequisite: MTH 076 with a grade of "C-" or better, or instructor permission. Prerequisite grades or test scores must have been completed within the past four terms. MTH 086 Applied Algebra is a first course in algebraic skills needed for technical mathematics, including the following: signed numbers, positive and negative exponents, scientific notation, the Cartesian coordinate system, linear equations and their graphs, linear systems and their graphs, quadratic equations and their graphs, forming expressions and equations from real situations. Oblique triangle trigonometry is an optional topic. Fraction skills will be reviewed as needed. Geometric topics from MTH 076 will be integrated throughout. The course will emphasize clear communication of mathematical results.
  • 1.00 - 4.00 Credits

    1-4 credits Prerequisite: MTH 065 or equivalent courses with a grade of "C-" or better, or pass a placement test through the Testing Office. Prerequisite grades or test scores must have been completed within the past four terms. If you have taken a higher level math course and passed the course with a "C-" or better, you may not use this course for your degree/certificate requirements. Offered as a variable credit (1-4) course using tutorial materials for self-paced study in a resource center setting (MRC). Instructor permission to enroll is required for self-paced study. This permission can be obtained at the MRC on the first day of classes or just prior to the beginning of the term. This is the third course of a one-year sequence in algebra (follows MTH 060 and MTH 065). Topics include function concept, polynomials, inequalities, rational equations, exponents, quadratic functions, radicals, and an introduction to exponential and logarithmic functions. MTH 090 satisfies the prerequisite for College Algebra, MTH 111 and satisfies the Associate of Applied Science degree requirements for several Lane programs. See specific program requirements for details. Scientific calculator required.
