Precalculus Technology Laboratory

Catalog description

Students are introduced to MATHEMATICA as a tool for exploring qualitative features of functions and solving pre-calculus problems: simplifying algebraic expressions, solving equations, plotting functions and curves, finding and approximating zeros and solving systems of equations. MATH 12600 cannot be taken for credit after a student has passed MATH 15000. Students who have passed MATH 15000 should register for MATH 15400 to satisfy the symbolic proficiency requirement.
