Section 0842 meets Tuesdays 8 - 9:20am and 1 - 3:20pm
This section is for the students registered in the Next
Step Program of Bell Atlantic Company. When the site is completed, it will
have included course outline, assignment, and lecture notes to assist the
students.
The course objectives of the course are:
Upon successful completion of this course, students should
be able to
1. perform basic arithmetic operations on real numbers
using examples from the field of technology,
using a scientific calculator.
2. perform basic operations on algebraic expressions
with/without fractions and evaluate formulas
from all fields of technology.
3. find the value of a function.
4. graph a linear function, on the rectangular
coordinate system using ordered pairs, and the slope of
the line.
5. find the trigonometric functions of an angle
in degree/radian notation using a scientific calculator,
and solve practical problems
relating to angle of elevation/depression involving right triangles.
6. solve two-variable linear systems of equations
graphically, and check the solution using algebraic
techniques.
7. find the solution of a linear system of three
equations in three unknowns using the Cramer’s rule.
8. perform algebraic operations on expressions
involving radicals and exponents from diverse fields
of technology.
9. resolve vectors of force, velocity, and impedance
into vector components and combine 2/3 vectors
into a resultant vector.
10. find amplitude, frequency, period, and phase-angle
of sine and cosine waves, and sketch these
periodic curves.
