Math 1031 College Algebra and Probability

Grading basis/credits:   3 credit(s)

Prereq:   Satisfactory score on placement exam or grade of at least C- in [PSTL 731 or PSTL 732] Credit will not be granted if credit has been received for: 1051, 1151, 1155

Description:  Math 1031 is a course in algebra and analytic geometry beyond the usual coverage found in a three-year high school mathematics program. This course is equivalent to Math 1051, Precalculus I (3 credits). As the Course Outline indicates, this course covers topics on solving equations and inequalities, and explores straight lines and functions in general. The functions discussed include exponential and logarithmic functions. You will learn to analyze certain functions and draw their graphs. The course will also teach you how to solve systems of equations and the use of certain sequences of numbers. You will also learn counting techniques and basic probability concepts. Almost all sections in the textbook contain application problems so that you can see the connection to and the usefulness of theoretical mathematics in our daily lives. This course can serve as a terminal course in mathematics as well as a precursor to higher mathematics, depending on your needs. In many places in the course, concepts are developed that will feed into calculus. Like any other course in mathematics, this course is challenging. If you do the work patiently, logically, and with due diligence, however, you will find it easy to master the material. Countless other students have done exactly that.

Math 1142 Short Calculus

Grading basis/credits:   4 credit(s)

Equivalencies:   Credit will not be granted if credit has been received for: MATH 1271

Prereq:   Satisfactory score on placement test or grade of at least C- in [1031 or 1051]

Description:  This course is designed for people who need only a brief introduction to calculus. Its purpose is to teach you the elements of differential and integral calculus, with an emphasis on business, economics, and the social sciences. This course requires proficiency in algebra. Knowledge of trigonometry is not needed. Some people think that mathematics is too abstract and too distant from everyday life. In this course, the authors of your textbook try to make the material come alive for you. You will be introduced to the ideas of limits of functions at particular points and continuity of functions. These concepts lead to the definitions of derivative and differentiation. You will learn how to differentiate polynomial, rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions. After you master differentiation techniques, you will learn integration of certain functions. The differentiation and integration techniques and connected processes are applied to solving problems related to real-life situations. You will work problems involving maximization of profits, minimization of costs, and other optimization problems. You will also tackle problems dealing with various rates, taxes, population growth, pollution levels, worker efficiency, spread of an epidemic, SAT scores, retail sales, radioactive decay, postal regulations, landscaping, experimental psychology, and other topics. Course Outline: Lesson 1: Functions and Limits Lesson 2: Differentiation Lesson 3: Marginal Analysis, Implicit Differentiation, and Relative Extrema of Functions Lesson 4: Curve Sketching and Optimization Lesson 5: Midcourse Exam 1 Lesson 6: Exponential and Logarithmic Functions Lesson 7: Integration Lesson 8: Additional Topics in Integration Lesson 9: Midcourse Exam 2 Lesson 10: Calculus of Two Variables Lesson 11: Final Exam Required Textbook: Hoffmann, Laurence D., Gerald L. Bradley, with Kenneth H. Rosen. Calculus for Business, Economics, and the Social and Life Sciences. 8th ed. New York: McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2004. IMPORTANT: Your instructor will not accept coursework based on the use of other editions of this textbook. All assignments for the course are based on the 8th edition, no exceptions. Suggested Supplement: Nichols, Devilyna. Student Solutions Manual for use with Calculus for Business, Economics, and the Social and Life Sciences, 8th Edition. New York: McGraw-Hill Companies, 2004.

Math 1271 Calculus I

Grading basis/credits:   4 credit(s)

Equivalencies:   Credit will not be granted if credit has been received for: MATH 1142

Prereq:   Satisfactory score on placement test or grade of at least C- in [1151 or 1155]

Description:  The beauty of mathematics lies in its precision. We can see this in the definition of its terms and the proofs of its results. In mathematics, we are asked to believe something only after seeing it proven. The concept of limits is what bridges the gap between the mathematics of algebra and geometry and the mathematics of calculus. In this course you will study one of the central concepts of calculus, the derivative of a function, the most important of which is lines tangent to curves. Determining tangent lines by means of limits leads to the definition of the derivative of a function, which has important applications in connection with velocity, acceleration, and certain economic concepts. We will develop formulas that make calculating the derivative of a function relatively straightforward. The work you invest in memorizing these formulas will pay big dividends in the future. In Math 1271, you will study derivatives of the six trigonometric functions: sine, cosine, secant, cosecant, tangent, and cotangent. You will use the powerful chain rule for finding the derivatives of composite functions. You will also study the mean-value theorem, which is of great importance in theoretical mathematics, and its application to increasing and decreasing functions and to the maxima and minima of functions. In addition, you will find the derivatives of higher orders - especially the second order - that are useful in discussing concavity and the points of inflection of a graph of a given function. Implicit differentiation, a form of the chain rule, is practical in theoretical work and useful in the integration techniques. You will also study basic integrals and their applications.
