MA 141 College Algebra and Trigonometry<br />

(4 credits; Spring)<br />

A study of topics from algebra and trigonometry, including polynomials,<br />

rational functions, exponents, equations, inequalities, graphs<br />

and trigonometric functions of real numbers.<br />

Prerequisite: MA 032 or placement<br />

MA 151 Introduction to Probability and Statistics<br />

(4 credits; Fall, Spring)<br />

Descriptive statistics: central tendencies, variability and<br />

histograms. Probability: intuitive probability, relative frequency<br />

interpretation, conditional probability and elementary combinatorics.<br />
