Recommended for students whose majors do not include a specific mathematics requirement. Objectives are to show some of the essence and quality of mathematics, and to enhance precision in the evaluation and expression of ideas, thereby developing a student's quantitative reasoning skills. Designed to give students an understanding of some of the vocabulary, methods, and reasoning of mathematics with a focus on ideas.

Prepares students for courses requiring fundamental algebra skills. Topics include: review of basic algebra; scientific notation, rounding, and percents; factoring; exponents; linear equations and inequalities with applications; quadratic equations with applications; graphing with applications; absolute value equations and inequalities; systems of linear equations and inequalities; and an introduction to exponential and logarithmic expressions.

Prepares students for Pre-calculus and other higher math courses requiring intermediate algebra. Topics include: linear equations and inequalities, absolute value equations and inequalities, systems of linear equations, quadratic equations, polynomial expressions and equations, rational expressions and equations, roots and radicals, and exponential & logarithmic properties and equations.

Mathematics for business world, including functions, math of finance, linear programming and rates of change. Applications to economics and business will be emphasized throughout.

MATH 30 continuation. Methods of integration; improper integrals; analytic geometry; infinite sequences and series.

Prerequisite: MATH 30 or appropriate high school based AP credit.

First order differential equations, second order differential equations with constant coefficients. Laplace transforms, small systems of linear differential equations, numerical methods, introduction to second order differential equations with variable coefficients.

Prerequisite: MATH 31.

MATH96E is a 1-unit, 1-week early start course for baccalaureate credit designed to prepare students for fall GE area B4. Working independently and collaboratively, students will use an inquiry-based approach to learning through research, reflection, and engagement with real world scenarios. Students will develop various academic literacies in order to understand the conventions of quantitative reasoning required for success in a college setting.
