CLEP: College Math

1 Credit
Open

College Mathematics covers material generally taught in a college course for students majoring in subjects that don’t require advanced math. The test includes questions on the real number system, logic, sets, equations, functions and their graphs, probability, statistics, data analyses, financial mathematics, and applications from algebra and geometry.

Competencies

Algebraic Functions

Students will demonstrate an understanding of algebraic functions by solving linear functions, solving quadratic functions, explaining the process for solving exponential and logarithmic functions, and solving linear inequalities.

Probability

Students will demonstrate an understanding of probability by explaining factorials, solving problems using combinatorics, and explaining probability theory.

Data Analysis

Competency Statement: Students will demonstrate an understanding of data analysis by analyzing visual representations of data, interpreting statistics, explaining normal distributions, and explaining bivariate data.

Financial Mathematics

Students will demonstrate an understanding of financial mathematics by explaining financial terminology, explaining interest, and explaining factors impacting future values.

Geometry

Students will demonstrate an understanding of geometry by explaining parallel and perpendicular lines, solving triangle problems, solving quadrilateral problems, and explaining the properties of circles.

Logic and Set Theory

Students will demonstrate an understanding of logic and set theory by explaining logical statements and by explaining elements of set theory.

Numbers

Students will demonstrate an understanding of numbers by explaining the properties of types of numbers, explaining concepts of elementary number theory, describing scientific notation, and describing graphs of absolute value functions.
