Course Description
Prerequisites: take one of the following sets:
- Set 1: DMA 010, DMA 020, DMA 030, DMA 040, DMA 050 Set 2: DMA 010, DMA 020, DMA 030, DMA 045 Set 3: DMA 025, DMA 045 Set 4: DMA 025, DMA 040, DMA 050 Set 5: MAT 121 Set 6: MAT 003 Set 7: BSP 4003 * Set 8: MAT 02
This course is designed to develop topics which are fundamental to the study of Calculus. Emphasis is placed on solving equations and inequalities, solving systems of equations and inequalities, and analysis of functions (absolute value, radical, polynomial, rational, exponential, and logarithmic) in multiple representations. Upon completion, students should be able to select and use appropriate models and techniques for finding solutions to algebra-related problems with and without technology.
