This developmental course is designed for non-mathematically oriented students.
Attention is given to improving problem solving skills and the role of mathematics as a tool.
Grade of C or better is required. This course, in combination with other activity and enhancement courses, is counted among 12 credit hours toward the 128 credits required for the baccalaureate degree and 6 hours toward the 64 required for the associate degree. Designed for students needing a mathematics course to assist them in their major area of study, such as health science and dietetics programs. Topics selected include linear equations, graphing, proportion and variation applications, use of exponents. This is the first of a two-semester sequence of courses designed to strengthen, broaden and enrich the student's background in the areas associated with elementary school mathematics.
