Brief Course Description

Information about Course Management

Homework Assignments     (January 18 - March 29)

Homework Assignments     (April 5 - May 6)
 
Handout: 6981 Special Problems   

Booklet: Vectors in the Plane   Note that  6571 (on HW assignment) =  6751 in booklet, and 6573 (on HW assignment) = 6753 in booklet.

Booklet: Infinite Series and Taylor Polynomials   including homework assignments through May 6. (large file, downloading may take awhile)

Project: The Population Lab 05

Practice Gateway Exam (with solutions)

Theorems on Infinite Series

6 Review Sheets for the Final Exam   (with 12 pages of brief solutions by Chester Miracle and 28 pages of more detailed solutions by Tyler Whitehouse)

FINAL EXAM:  1:30 - 4:30 pm Monday, May 9,  Anderson Hall 310 (West Bank)
"All students must have their official University I.D. Card with them at the time of the final exam and must show it to one of the proctors when  handing in their exam. The proctor will NOT accept a final exam from a student without an I.D. Card."

Some examples:

Direction fields

Spreadsheet implementations of Euler's method (with an example showing that roundoff error becomes significant when stepsize is too small)

Graphs of some Taylor polynomial approximations of sin(x), -4 < x < 4.   Note that the Taylor polynomial T_19(x) is such a good approximation that the graphs can't be distinguished in the interval -4 < x < 4.
