MTH 110 — Finite Mathematics
intended to give an overview of topics in finite mathematics together with their applications, and is taken primarily by students who are not majoring in science, engineering, commerce or mathematics (i.e., students who are not required to take Calculus). This course will draw on and significantly enhance the student’s arithmetic and algebraic skills. The course includes sets, counting, permutations, combinations, basic probability (including Baye’s Theorem), and introduction to statistics (including work with Binomial Distributions and Normal Distributions), matrices and their application to Markov chains and decision theory. Additional topics may include symbolic logic, linear models, linear programming, the simplex method and applications. Prerequisite: MTH 098 with a grade of C or higher; Math ACT score of 18, or appropriate placement score. (note: MTH 109 is required for students moving directly from MTH 098 to MTH 110)
