My Business Mathematics' Class

Hey!
Today, I'm going to tell you about my business math's class.
My class consists of 25 students, including my senior, Abang Luqman.
My lecturer is Miss Ch'ng Pei Eng. She is a very good lecturer and the best lecturer I've ever had. Hehe.
My class is on every monday, tuesday and wednesday. On monday, my class at BKA1.9, on tuesday at multimedia 2 and lastly, on thursday, my class at BTH3.1.

Here's some pictures,

What is Business Mathematics?

Business mathematics is mathematics used by commercial enterprises to record and manage business operations. Mathematics typically used in commerce includes elementary arithmetic, such as fractions, decimals, and percentages, elementary algebra, statistics and probability. Business management can be made more effective in some cases by use of more advanced mathematics such as calculus, matrix algebra and linear programming.

Commercial organizations use mathematics in accounting, inventory management, marketing, sales forecasting, and financial analysis.

In academia, "Business Mathematics" includes mathematics courses taken at an undergraduate level by business students. These courses are slightly less difficult and do not always go into the same depth as other mathematics courses for people majoring in mathematics or science fields. The two most common math courses taken in this form are Business Calculus and Business Statistics. Examples used for problems in these courses are usually real-life problems from the business world.

An example of the differences in coursework from a business mathematics course and a regular mathematics course would be calculus. In a regular calculus course, students would study trigonometric functions. Business calculus would not study trigonometric functions because it would be time-consuming and useless to most business students, except perhaps economics majors. Economics majors who plan to continue economics in graduate school are strongly encouraged to take regular calculus instead of business calculus, as well as linear algebra and other advanced math courses, especially real analysis.
