MAT-151 Accelerated Precalculus

Strengthen algebra and mathematical modeling skills to prepare for further studies in mathematics, engineering, and the sciences. Study equations and graphs including polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions. Use trigonometric identities to simplify expressions and solve equations. Explore plane analytic geometry. Prerequisites: Achieve an appropriate score on the mathematics part of the ACT or SAT, or score at an appropriate level on the Mathematics Placement Test, or completion of MAT 012 or MAT 012E with a grade of at least B. Note: MAT 151 is open to all qualified students planning to take calculus. Credit is not given for both MAT 151 and MAT 121 or MAT 151 and MAT 145 (formerly MAT 141) or MAT 151 and MAT 146 (formerly MAT 142). Each section requires use of a graphing calculator. The department recommends the TI-83 or TI-84 and uses one of these for demonstration.
