MAT 155 - Precalculus Mathematics
Precalculus Mathematics Prerequisite: Placment at this level Topics include the study of functions, domain and range, building new functions through algebraic operations, composition of functions, and inverse functions. The course will also include the study of families of functions such as polynomial, rational, radical, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions. Specifically, students are expected to gain an understanding of algebraic notation, expressions, equations, inequalities and their use in describing and interpreting relationships, functions and function notation, proportional and inversely proportional relationships, and applications of periodic phenomena and trigonometric identities. The use and mastery of graphing technology is an essential aspect of the course. The course is designed for students majoring in STEM disciplines. May also be useful to other quantitative disciplines. 4.000 Credit hours 4.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture Mathematical Sciences Department Course Attributes: ELAC Foundational Concept Math, FPR Mathematics, LAC T1M-Mathematics Mutual Exclusion: This course carries a mutual exclusion with the following courses; you may not enroll in it if you have completed any of the following with a passing grade: MAT 155P Prerequisites: MAT 101 or MAT 101L or MAT 101W or MAT 101P or MAT 216 or Qualified For Any LAC Math 1 or MAT 243, Calculus I w/Tech 1 or MAT 130, Pre-Calculus 1 or SAT Mathematics 570
