3.00 Credits
Methods of solving problems arising from the growth of money through simple and compound interest. Savings accounts, loans, financing, mortgages, depreciation, bonds, pensions and life insurance are included.
-
3.00 Credits
Quantitative reasoning is the application of basic mathematical skills to the analysis and interpretation of real-world quantitative information to draw conclusions that are relevant to people in their daily lives. In this course, students will explore various quantitative models and their interpretations in a way that emphasizes mathematical and statistical reasoning skills. Conceptual understanding will be stressed over manipulative skills. Students will learn to create sophisticated arguments supported by quantitative evidence and clearly communicate them in a variety of formats (using words, tables, graphs, mathematical equations, etc.) as appropriate. Technology, such as spreadsheets, will also be used. This course satisfies the Quantitative Reasoning requirement in the Rock Studies Program. This course is graded A, B, C, NC.
-
3.00 Credits
A survey of Euclidean geometry and related elementary geometricalconcepts. This course is not appropriate for those planning toteach geometry at the secondary level, but would be an excellent choicefor those who will be teaching mathematics in the elementary school.
-
3.00 Credits
Linear functions, equations, inequalities, polynomials, algebra of functions, rational exponents, quadratic equations and inequalities, systems of equations.
-
3.00 Credits
The algebra of matrices with applications in linear optimization, algebraic and graphical solutions.
-
3.00 Credits
The course is compatible with the background and interests of students not majoring in the physical sciences or mathematics. The theorem-proof approach of differential calculus is replaced with the explanation-example approach. The course includes an introduction to exponential and logarithmic functions, limits, derivatives, maxima/minima, and Lagrange multipliers, and applications from business, economics, and finance. Problem-solving with mathematical software will also be emphasized.
-
4.00 Credits
A bridge between high school algebra and calculus involving polynomial, trigonometric, logarithmic, exponential functions, complex numbers, and the conic sections.
-
3.00 Credits
This course begins the study of the language and concepts needed for higher-level mathematics. Students will learn principles of logic, focusing on logical forms, truth tables, and statement calculus. Students will analyze examples of and complete calculations involving sets, relations, and functions. Students will also receive an introduction to counting techniques and recursion. This course is not a proof-based course.
-
3.00 Credits
Foundations of Academic Discovery serves as the entry point to the Rock Integrated Studies Program. With its strong faculty-student interaction, the course promotes intellectual inquiry, critical and creative thinking, and academic excellence. Through varied content, the course introduces students to academic discourse and information literacy while exploring topics such as diversity and inclusion and global awareness. This course will set students along the path to becoming engaged with issues and scholarship important to a 21st century education while they learn about themselves and their place in the world.
-
1.00 Credits
An introduction to the appropriate use of mathematical software with emphasis on problem solving. Topics will include mathematical concepts from calculus, linear algebra, and differential equations.
