Topics may include theory of networks, voting theory, game theory, statistics in society, codes, tiling, symmetry and patterns. Students develop their skills by approaching functions numerically, algebraically, graphically and verbally. A TI-82 graphing calculator or equivalent is required. This course may not be taken for credit if a grade of C or above was achieved in a higher mathematics course. Using real world data students learn about functions through symbolic, numerical, graphical and verbal techniques.
Classes meet for lecture three times weekly and for lab twice weekly.
A TI-82 graphing calculator or equivalent is required. This course is a study of basic concepts in various areas of mathematics. Using technology and actual data, this course explores descriptive and inferential statistics in preparation for research in various fields of study. A TI-82 or equivalent graphing calculator is required. We study functions via rates of change.
