MATH 138 - College Algebra for Business & Social Science 5 CR
Examines graphs, non- trigonometric elementary functions, systems of equations and inequalities, and probability, emphasizing uses in business and social science. MATH 138 and MATH 141 have overlapping content and students are not recommended to take both. MATH 138 is required before taking MATH 148 . Note: Fulfills quantitative or symbolic reasoning course requirement at BC.
Prerequisite(s): Placement by assessment, or MATH 99 with a B- or better.
Course Outcomes After successful completion of Math 138, the student will be able to
1) Compose, and add, subtract, multiply, and divide functions represented as graphs, tables, and formulas.
2) Analyze and apply linear, quadratic, polynomial, rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions.
3) Setup, solve, and analyze significant applied problems selected from systems of linear equations, or finance mathematics, or linear programming.
4) Apply tools and techniques of introductory probability and statistics selected from the following list: sets, Venn diagrams, tree diagrams, the multiplication principle, permutations, combinations, measures of central tendency, measures of variation, histograms, and boxplots.

METR 102 - Introduction to the Weather and Climate w/Lab 6 CR
Introduces the study of the weather, including atmospheric properties and processes that control temperature, wind, precipitation, and storm systems. Students also discuss weather forecasting, air pollution, and climate change. Students will explore atmospheric processes by working hands-on with real-world weather and climate data in the weekly labs.
Either METR 101 or METR 102 may be taken for credit, not both. Note: This course fulfills the Natural Science w/Lab distribution requirement for AAS-DTA.
Course Outcomes
- Diagram the vertical structure of the Earth’s atmosphere and explain the concepts of density, pressure, and temperature, and how each varies vertically in the atmosphere.
- List the major constituent gasses of the atmosphere, and describe the special roles played by water in the Earth’s atmosphere.
- Visually identify and classify clouds into the four main cloud families and ten main types.
- Summarize the concepts of energy and heat transfer in the atmosphere, and identify the primary components of the Earth-atmosphere heat balance.
- Apply the concepts of forces and force balances in diagramming and describing the nature of atmospheric motions.
- Analyze data on air pressure, temperature, humidity, and winds, and use this data to infer the state of the atmosphere
- Show how fronts are formed at the boundaries between air masses, and explain how such boundaries contribute to the formation of various types of storms that occur on Earth, including mid-latitude cyclones, tropical cyclones, thunderstorms, and tornadoes.
- Use upper-air and surface meteorological charts to interpret and explain the evolution of weather systems.
- Evaluate the effectiveness of various weather forecasting techniques, and explain the main limitations inherent in weather predictions.
- Describe the most important anthropogenic effects on the Earth’s atmosphere, including air pollution and global warming.
