Limits, continuity and the derivative. The power rule, product and quotient rules, the chain rule, and implicit differentiation. The Mean Value Theorem and the Intermediate Value Theorem. curve sketching and optimization, and linear approximation. Riemann integral and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. Various applications to economics, life sciences, and physical sciences. Students will not be allowed to obtain credit for both MATH 15200 and MATH 15000. Students planning on taking more than one semester of calculus should take MATH 15000 instead.

This course is an introduction to the differential calculus of one and several variables with applications to business and economics. Topics to be discussed include intuitive and geometric definitions of the limit; derivatives of algebraic, exponential, and logarithmic functions; optimization problems; related rates; and curve sketching. It is recommended that students who intend to pursue further studies in mathematics register for MTH 2610 or 2630. Not open to students who have completed MTH 2000, 2011, 2207, 2610, or 2630.

(Not open to students majoring in MAT.)Differentiation and integration of elementary functions with applications to business, to social sciences, and to life sciences. PREREQ: A grade of C (or better) in MAT 171 or placement by the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science. Notes: (1) Students may not receive credit for both MAT 174 and MAT 175. (2) MAT 174 will not serve as a prerequisite for MAT 176

This course is designed to provide non-science majors with a mathematical background required for the application of elementary quantitative methods to problems in business and the social sciences. This course is designed to provide students with a solid background in those topics from calculus that have applications in the study of business and economics. Topics to be studied include the derivative, graphing and optimization, and the chain rule. Integration techniques will be developed and then applied to business and economics problems. Topics from multivariable calculus include the use of the Lagrange multiplier in maxima and minima problems. The method of solving initial-value problems involving first order linear differential equations and their applications to business, economics, and social sciences will be presented.
