This course helps to build the foundational material to use mathematics as a tool to model, understand, and interpret the world around us. This is done through studying functions, their properties, and applications to data analysis. Concepts of precalculus provide the set of tools for the beginning student to begin their scientific career, preparing them for future science and calculus courses. This course is designed for all students, not just those interested in further mathematics courses. Students interested in the natural sciences, computer sciences, psychology, sociology, or similar will genuinely benefit from this introductory course, applying the skills learned to their discipline to analyze and interpret their subject material. Students will be presented with not only new ideas, but also new applications of an old subject. Real-life data, exercise sets, and regular assessments help to motivate and reinforce the content in this course, leading to learning and mastery.

Top-Bewertungen von PRECALCULUS: MATHEMATICAL MODELING
The course is very helpful and design to teach you about mathematic modeling regardless your limited prior knowledge in Microsoft Excel.
The course content is very engaging and taught with practical applications in mind. Perfect for anyone wanting to get started or just refresh their concepts !
very good teaching, a little preview should be provided giving an idea what mathematical concepts should be known beforehand
All the courses of this spezialization are useful and well-explained. In this course you will find the basics of modeling but very interesting examples are used.
