Corequisite Support for Math 5

Catalog description

A concurrent co-requisite course containing geometry and algebra concepts designed to support students in Calculus for Business and Life Science. Topics include a review of skills developed in geometry and intermediate algebra: area and volume, factoring, graphing, operations on rational and radical expressions, linear, exponential and logarithmic expressions and equations, functions including composition and inverses, and an in-depth focus on linear and quadratic functions. Topics are taught strategically throughout the semester to provide a "just in time" instruction of skills needed to master concepts in MAT 5 as they arise in that course. A diverse approach to problem solving processes and enhancement of study strategies will prepare the student for later university courses. 36.00 hours lecture. (Pass/No Pass only)
