MAT107

The study of functions. This course is a gateway to the study of higher level mathematics and a useful preparation for courses with quantitative content. Students investigate the principles, properties, and applications of several common types of functions from numerical, algebraic, and graphical perspectives and use these functions to model real world problems. Principal types include polynomial, rational, composite, and inverse functions. The course also introduces exponential and logarithmic functions and briefly examines absolute value, root, step, and piecewise functions.
Prereq. MAT 096 or MAT 120 or satisfactory placement into MAT 107; or satisfactory placement into HUD 138 and concurrent enrollment in MAT 003. Placement tests are used only for initial course placement; see catalog for details.
