Course Description:
A continuation of Math 19 covering remaining topics of Math 120. Presentation is adapted to needs of students with learning or physical disabilities. (This course may be substituted for Math 120 in degrees and programs). Mathematical concepts particularly relevant to informed and aware citizenship in modern society. Topics include functions, graphs, problem solving, topics in finance, geometry, probability and statistics. Satisfies UNR core curriculum. Note: Computer use and graphing calculator may be required (TI-83/84 recommended). Note: Completing Math 119 is designed to be equivalent to completing Math 120. Therefore, Math 119 satisfies Math Gen Ed for AA and AAS but not AS. Enrollment requirements: Prerequisite: A grade of 'C' or better in Math 19.
Course Outcomes:
Students will demonstrate the ability to solve basic problems in probability and statistics.
