3/7 (1): The homework list has been updated.
-
3/7 (2): This Friday's quiz will cover Sections 18-A, 18-B, 19-A, and 19-B of Ebersole and Section 4.10 of Stewart. You should know how to
- Find the general antiderivative of a function using the correct combination of the constant multiple rule, the sum and difference rule, and the reverse power rule (or guessing and checking)
- Recognize the indefinite integral notation for the general antiderivative
- Simplify a function so that the terms are all a number times a power of x (or whatever independent variable is being used), and then get the general antiderivative
- Given a sum in sigma notation, write out the sum and simplify
- Estimate the area under a curve using a given number of rectangles and a basis for the heights (such as right endpoints, left endpoints, or midpoints) of the rectangles
-
3/7 (3): By popular demand (and because problem session hasn't been working out most weeks), I am cancelling problem session for the rest of the term, and instead holding office hours on Fridays from 10:00-12:00.
-
3/7 (4): I am working on the quiz solutions for quizzes 4 and 5. Keep checking back; I will try to have them up soon.
-
3/8: The solutions to quizzes 4 and 5 are now available above.
-
3/14: This Friday's quiz will cover Sections 19-C, 20-A, and 20-B of Ebersole and Sections 5.1 and 5.2 of Stewart. You should know how to
- Interpret the definite integral as the net area under a curve, where area above the x-axis counts as positive and area below counts as negative
- Use geometry to evaluate a definite integral. You should know the formulas for the areas of a rectangle, triangle, and circle
- Write the formula for the area under a curve as a limit of a Riemann sum. Sample problem:
-
3/15 (1): The homework list has been updated.
-
3/15 (2): The solutions to quiz 6 are now available above.
-
3/17: We are having our second MIDTERM on Friday, April 1 (no joke!), the week after we return from Spring Break. There is a practice midterm available above. Solutions will be available soon. As always, I urge you to complete the practice midterm under test conditions (60 minutes or less, no notes, no calculator) as soon as possible.
-
3/20: The solutions to the practice midterm and to Quiz 7 are now available above.
-
3/28: I have posted current grades outside my office. Please come take a look at them and make sure they are all correct.
