MATH 115Math for Liberal Arts3
This course in an introduction to mathematical applications in the real world as they relate to the liberal arts, stressing logical thinking and problem solving. Topics include: mathematical ways of thinking, number sequences, functions and their graphs, counting methods, probability and statistics. The controlled, self-paced course is taking place in SmartMath labs.
This course is intended for business, computer, mathematics and science majors. Emphasis is placed on varied methods and manipulations. Algebraic techniques that have applications in the student's anticipated area of specialization are studied. Topics will include: linear and quadratic equations; inequalities; graphing; polynomials; factoring; operations with rational and irrational expressions; systems of linear equations and others. . The controlled, self-paced course is taking place in SmartMath labs.
An introduction to computers and computing including the history of computers, the role of computers in a technological society, descriptions of computers and associated hardware, binary and hexadecimal number systems, and the use of a word processor, spreadsheet and database as tools in problem solving.
An introduction to real-valued functions and their graphs including polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions. Functions will be represented symbolically, numerically, graphically, and verbally. Real-world applications will be used to introduce the concepts. Graphing calculators will be used throughout the course.
