MAT 070 Special Topics: Pre-Statistics

Credit hours 4   Contact hours 60

This course is an accelerated one-semester introduction to Statistics or Math for Liberal Arts covering core concepts from arithmetic, pre-algebra, elementary and intermediate algebra, and descriptive statistics. The core arithmetic and algebra skills needed to understand the concepts, formulas, and graphs used in Statistics/Math for Liberal Arts will be investigated in a "just-in-time" approach rather than the standard sequence. Additional emphasis will be placed on solving and graphing linear equations; modeling with linear functions; solving contextualized problems; and dimensional analysis.

Prerequisite

Successful completion of MAT 045 or MAT 060 (grade C or higher) or appropriate assessment scores.
