Exps/Logs and Applications
Exponents, Logarithms, and Their Applications (Half Credit) Students will explore the fundamental concepts of exponents and logarithms and gain proficiency in algebraic manipulation of these functions. We will explore their wide-ranging applications across various fields of mathematics and real-world scenarios, including compound interest, population growth, radioactive decay and carbon dating, and the pH scale. We will discuss strategies for how to be successful as a student in a college-level math class, how to work together to solve problems, and how to harness students’ strengths for maximum efficiency in learning. Emphasis is placed on developing problem-solving skills and mathematical reasoning in preparation for calculus and related fields. (Students are encouraged, but not required, to enroll in MATH 0103 in the same semester)
