How Math Relates To My Major :Business and Marketing

Hey My Name is Stefan Dwayne Maragh and my dream is top pursue business and marketing which to me would be a dream come true. However, the math that I would be willing to take from this class is the consumer and percentage part of the math because it is very important to me that I learn this craft very well and hope to use it in the future if deemed necessary so I would be a big part of my community. Furthermore, I Would also like to say that Math 1190 would be a big step up for me as far as giving me the tools for future reference.

This Graph Shows The Unemployment Rate of blacks in america between 1980 and 2011 which is the 30 year period that we see a slight decrease and increase during that time.
