This course satisfies the General Education Mathematics requirement.

List Course Outcomes (consistent for all sections)
CO1 - Classify functions and identify characteristics such as the form of the equation, domain, intercepts, zeros and asymptotes in order to graph them and to solve equations.

CO2 - Graph, both manually and with a graphing calculator, a variety of functions in order to analyze the graphs and identify characteristics such as domain and range.

CO3 - Solve algebraic, logarithmic, exponential and systems of equations in order to obtain solutions both algebraically and graphically.

CO4 - Apply transformations in order to graph and analyze various functions.

CO5 - Identify characteristics of a polynomial function including real and complex zeros, local maxima and minima and end behavior to analyze and graph these functions.
