MATH 145 Business Calculus
Students will develop skills in initial content of both differential and integral calculus, with an emphasis on applications from business and economics. Topics include finding the limits of functions, computing derivatives of functions, analyzing graphs using the first and second derivatives, and computing definite and indefinite integrals. Applications include supply and demand problems, marginal analysis, optimization, and consumers' and producers' surplus problems. The fundamental theorem of calculus, summations of area, partial derivatives, and the method of least squares will be used when appropriate. Students cannot receive credit for both MATH 145 and MATH 181.
