This course is not for college-level credit. Repeatable up to two credit hours. Students should check the course schedule for possible offerings of the lab class.Statement on Students with DisabilitiesStatement on Scholastic Dishonesty PenaltyStatement on Academic FreedomMathematics for Business and EconomicsFirst Day Handout for Students[Semester]MATH 1324- [section number] [Instructor Name]Synonym: [insert] [Instructor ACC Phone][Time], [Campus] [Room] [Instructor email][Instructor web page, if applicable][Instructor Office]Office Hours: [day, time]Other hours by appointmentCOURSE DESCRIPTIONMATH 1324 MATHEMATICS FOR BUSINESS AND ECONOMICS (3-3-0) A course in finite mathematics for business students including sets, basic algebraic properties, linear equations and inequalities, functions and graphs, the exponential and logarithmic functions, the mathematics of finance, systems of linear equations and matrices, linear inequalities and linear programming, the simplex method, and an introduction to probability. Prerequisites: MATD 0390 or satisfactory score on the ACC Assessment Test. Credit can be earned for only one of MATH 1324 or BUA 2103. (MTH 1643) REQUIRED TEXTS/MATERIALSThe required textbook for this course is:Finite Mathematics, by Barnett, Ziegler, and Byleen 11th ed. (Prentice-Hall) ISBN 0132255707 Other materials include:- Scientific Calculator that handles exponents, logarithms and simple probability and statistics. Most ACC faculty are familiar with the TI family of graphing calculators. Hence, TI calculators are highly recommended for student use. Other calculator brands can also be used. Your instructor will determine the extent of calculator use in your class section. INSTRUCTIONAL METHODOLOGYThis course is taught in the classroom primarily as a lecture/discussion course. COURSE RATIONALEThis course is required in certain degree plans, such as Accounting, Computer Information Systems and Economics. For some students, this is the first half of a two-semester finite mathematics/business calculus sequence. This is also a preparation course prior to taking two semesters of business calculus, although the preferred preparation for two semesters of business calculus is MATH 1314. Finally, some students take this course as a general mathematics elective. NOTE TO STUDENTSA steady pace must be maintained throughout the semester in order to complete all required topics in a thorough manner. Students experiencing a great deal of difficulty in Sections 1.2and 2.1 through 2.3 should review (on their own) Appendices A or should consider taking MATD 0390 (Intermediate Algebra) before returning to this course. Students who discover difficulty during the first class of the semester should consider changing their registration during late registration to MATD 0390. Students who remain in the course but need additional assistance should consider registering for the supplemental lab course (MATH 0161). Students also have access to walk-in tutoring at the Learning Lab.157COMMON COURSE OBJECTIVESCommon course objectives need to be printed out and included in the first day handout. They are found at: http://www.austincc.edu/mthdept2/tfcourses/obj1324.htm COURSE EVALUATION/GRADING SCHEMEGrading criteria must be clearly explained in the syllabus. The criteria should specify the numberof exams and other graded material (homework, assignments, projects, etc.). Guidelines for othergraded materials, such as homework or projects, should also be included. COURSE POLICIESThe syllabus should contain the following policies of the instructor: - missed exam policy---policy about late work (if applicable)- class participation expectations- reinstatement policy (if applicable) Attendance Policy (if no attendance policy, students must be told that). Math Dept's attendance policy follows. Instructors who have a different policy are required to state it. "Attendance is required in this course. Students who miss more than 4 classes may be withdrawn." Withdrawal Policy (including the withdrawal deadline for the semester) It is the student's responsibility to initiate all withdrawals in this course. The instructor may withdraw students for excessive absences (4) but makes no commitment to do this for the student.After the withdrawal date, neither the student nor the instructor may initiate a withdrawal.Incomplete Grade PolicyIncomplete grades (I) will be given only in very rare circumstances. Generally, to receive a gradeof "I", a student must have taken all examinations, be passing, and after the last date to withdraw, have a personal tragedy occur which prevents course completion.Course-Specific Support Services Sometimes sections of MATH 0161 MATH FOR BUS & ECO LAB (1-0-2) are offered.

ACC main campuses have Learning Labs that offer free first-come first-serve tutoring in mathematics courses. The locations, contact information and hours of availability of the Learning Labs are posted at: http://www.austincc.edu/tutor Statement on Students with Disabilities Each ACC campus offers support services for students with documented physical or psychological disabilities. Students with disabilities must request reasonable accommodations through the Office of Students with Disabilities on the campus where they expect to take the majority of their classes. Students are encouraged to do this three weeks before the start of the semester. It is also recommended that instructors add the following:158Students who are requesting accommodation must provide the instructor with a letter of accommodation from the Office of Students with Disabilities (OSD) at the beginning of the semester. Accommodations can only be made after the instructor receives the letter of accommodation from OSD. Statement
