    Description
    Math 242 is for students whose educational plan includes ONLY Math 5 (transfer-level Statistics). If your major is math, science, engineering, computer science, business, etc., and/or your educational plan includes any transfer-level math class other than Math 5, or you are unsure about your major, you should take Math 240. Math 240 and Math 242 are not equivalent. Math 242 prepares students for transfer-level Statistics (Math 5) by covering core concepts from Algebra and Statistics that are needed to understand the basics of college level statistics. Topics include operations on real numbers, solving equations, functions, inequalities, radicals, exponential and logarithmic functions, exploratory analysis of categorical, quantitative, single variable and bivariate data, and probability. PREREQUISITE: Appropriate placement.
