MA 1080 - Applied Mathematics: Problem Solving Using Excel

3.00 credits.

Mathematical Analysis Core Course. This course provides an introduction to a variety of mathematical concepts focusing on real-world applications of mathematical modeling and meaning, rather than on proving theorems. This is an application-oriented course and the approach is practical. Learners will use Excel to find the solutions to real-world mathematical situations. Focusing on translating every day questions into mathematical problems to solve, the topics will include: Algebra, Sets, Graphing, Number Theory, Linear Equations and Inequalities, Statistics, Probability, and Consumer Mathematics. Part of the class is devoted to lecture and part will be an interactive lab.
