MATH 115
Preparation for Calculus

Credit:  3 hours.

This course satisfies the General Education Criteria for a
Quant Reasoning I course.

Reviews trigonometric, rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions; provides a full treatment of limits, definition of derivative, and an introduction to finding area under a curve. Intended for students who need preparation for MATH 220, either because they lack the content background or because they are not prepared for the rigor of a university calculus course. Credit is not given for both MATH 115 and either MATH 014 or MATH 016. Students may not receive credit for MATH 115 if MATH 115 is taken after receiving credit for MATH 220 or MATH 221. Prerequisite: MATH 012 and an adequate ALEKS score.
