A study of functions and their graphs, including polynomial, rational, exponential and logarithmic functions; inverse functions; equations and inequalities; and applications.

For more information about this course, review the Math 105 Course Outline  

Credit Hours: 3 hrs
Prerequisite: placement or (at least a C in

 )
Terms Offered: Fall, Winter and Summer

This course will help students refine and extend fluency with algebraic skills. Additionally, the focus of this course is on the conceptual understanding of functions. The course makes the case for using functions to model physical phenomena and simultaneously teaches methods to analyze these functions in a meaningful way. The course presents a catalog of functions - linear, power, quadratic, polynomial, rational, absolute value, exponential and logarithmic functions. By the end of the course students should know the basic properties and graphs of these functions along with using them as models for real world applications. For these reasons, MATH 105 will count for the Quantitative Reasoning requirement in the General Education program Education for Participation in the Global Community.
