About This Course
College Mathematics is a college-level mathematics course for non-mathematics majors and majors in fields not requiring knowledge of advanced mathematics. In this course, students will become familiar with currently taught mathematics vocabulary, symbols, and notation and will learn to solve both routine problems and non-routine problems that require the application of skills and concepts. The subject matter of this course includes sets and logic, number theory, geometry, algebra and functions, graphs, probability, statistics, and financial mathematics.
Course Objectives
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- Solve and interpret algebraic equations, inequalities, and functions in numeric, graphic, and symbolic methods.
- Recall and apply the probability and counting rules and definitions; Analyze data and statistics in the forms of graphs, charts, and summaries.
- Calculate percentages, percent change, markups, discounts, taxes, profits, loss, and interest in relation to finances.
- Compare and contrast properties of geometric shapes and lines, including perimeters, areas, circumference, and angles, as well as parallel and perpendicular lines; Find relationships within sets, subsets, Venn diagrams, and logic statements.
- Interpret properties of numbers, including number systems, number theory, and measurement.
- Apply mathematic knowledge to both routine (straightforward) and non-routine (real world) problems.
- Analyze data and statistics in the forms of graphs, charts, and summaries.
- Find relationships with sets, subsets, Venn diagrams, and logic statements.
