Welcome to Pre-Calculus September 3, 2008

Instructors’ Information Instructors : Ameena Amdahl-Mason Telephone : amdahl- Office Hours : 7:45- 9:15am/2:45-3:45pm or by arrangement

Course description Course Description This course is part I of a pre-calculus sequence that provides an extensive study of functions and their inverses modeled algebraically, numerically and graphically. Specific functions include the exponential, logarithmic, polynomial and power functions. Modeling real world applications are emphasized. Course Objectives This course will foster an understanding of functions and their properties, including rates of change, short- and long-run behavior, transformations and symmetry, algebra and composition of functions, inverse functions, discrete functions, and fitting functions to data. Particular attention will be paid to the use of functions to model applications and solve problems.

More class information Credits: 0.5 Credits per term if taken for high school credit, 1.5 if taken for college credit (student must receive a C or better to receive college credit) Class Schedule: 3 rd period, every day (M/W/F 12:50- 1:45, T/R 12:20-1:30) Location: CMC main campus; math room
