Completion of this course prepares students for the Advanced Placement examination in the AB level of Calculus in May. Students who enroll in this course are expected to take this test. The material follows the outline of the Advanced Placement Program for BC Calculus. Topics included are differentiation and integration of algebraic and transcendental functions, techniques of integration, indeterminate forms, improper integrals, infinite series, differential equations, parametric functions, vector functions, and applications of these. Completion of this course prepares students for the Advanced Placement examination in the BC level of calculus in May. Students who enroll in this course are expected to take this test. In this beginning programming course, students combine computer techniques and methods with previously learned mathematical concepts.
Students learn to solve problems with the use of computers.
Students may either enroll for the first semester or for a full year. This course familiarizes students with simple experiment design, formulation and testing of hypotheses, and adoption of confidence intervals. Students will become familiar with computer statistics software used to interpret, apply, and evaluate data. This course is designed primarily for students whose college education will likely lead to careers in business or in the behavioral, social, or biological sciences. Course topics include logic, sets, modeling, linear equations and inequalities, matrix algebra, linear programming, and the simplex method.
