Las Positas College | Summer-Fall 2022 Class Schedule

28 SUMMER 2022 925.424.1000 | [email protected] SUMMER 2022 - COURSE LISTINGS Please refer to the onl ine schedule on CLASS-Web to access course section detai ls and the course record numbers (CRNs) for registration. MATH EMPORIUM TheMath Emporium is amode inwhich students have the ability to complete their foundational math courses, associate level math courses, and Technical Math sequence in a personalized mode. This mode allows students to self-accelerate through the material in a way that is unique to each student’s needs. Students will learn study skills and tips along with the math while working on their lab assignments. Students will decide when they are ready to take a test and take the length of time they need when testing (within the hours of operation). Students registering for a Math Emporium course are required to purchase and use the internet based software MyMathLab, which contains an online version of the textbook. MATH 30 COLLEGE ALGEBRA FOR STEM 4.0 Units College algebra core concepts relating to Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) and Business fields are explored, such as: polynomial, rational, radical, exponential, absolute value, and logarithmic functions; systems of equations; theory of polynomial equations; and analytic geometry. Multiple representations, applications and modeling with functions are emphasized throughout. May not receive credit if Mathematics 20 or 45 have been completed. Prerequisite: MATH 55 or MATH 55B or NMAT 255 with a minimum grade of C Some sections of this course are taught in the Math Emporium. For more information, go to the Mathematics Department website http://www.laspositascollege.edu/mathemporium. Students are strongly encouraged to enroll in a tuitionfree, noncredit NMAT 201C or a 1 unit credit Math 101C for individualized, interactive support in College Algebra. A TI-84 or TI-83 calculator or internet-based software may be required for some sections of this course. There may be a fee associated with these materials. Consult with the instructor or bookstore before registering for this course. MATH 40 STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY 4.0 Units Descriptive statistics, including measures of central tendency, dispersion and position; elements of probability; confidence intervals; hypothesis tests; two-population comparisons; correlation and regression; goodness of fit; analysis of variance; applications in various fields. Introduction to the use of a computer software package to complete both descriptive and inferential statistics problems. Prerequisites: Math 50 or Math 55 or Math 55B with a minimum grade of C Some sections of this course are taught in the Math Emporium. For more information, go to the Mathematics Department website http://www.laspositascollege.edu/mathemporium. Students are strongly encouraged to enroll in a tuitionfree, noncredit NMAT 200C or a 1 unit credit Math 100C for individualized, interactive support in Statistics.
