MATH-143 Precalculus I

In this course, students will further develop their algebraic skills. The concept of a function as a tool to model the real world will play a central role. Polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions will be studied, along with operations on functions and inverse functions. A graphical approach will be utilized throughout, with an emphasis on solving application problems. All sections require the use of the interactive computer program that comes with the text. This course replaces MATH-131. Prerequisite: MATH-070 or appropriate score on mathematics placement test.
