Mathematics 1B XPD128
Introduction
This unit is a continuation of XPD127 with emphasis on the application of single- variable calculus and linear algebra to problems in the physical and biological sciences, economics, and engineering. The units XDD127 and XPD128 also provide an excellent introduction to the mathematical rigour required for higher level mathematics based subjects. Successful completion of XDD127 and XPD128 is the prerequisite for most second year units in Mathematics and Physics as well as all semester 1, second year units in Engineering.
