The three kinds of assignments in this course are readings (which should be done according to the course schedule), WeBWorK, and written assignments. The written assignments are below; they are not collected unless otherwise announced, but they are fair game for the quizzes.
- Assignments relevant to September 23 quiz. (These should be done
by September 23, certainly, but I recommend doing them after the relevant
material is covered in class so that you can ask questions about them
in the following class. E.g., since Sections 1.1-1.3 will be covered
on Wednesday, September 16, I recommend doing those problems by Friday the
18th.)
- Limit problems (Sections 1.1-1.3). (Solutions)
- Continuity and rigorous limits (Sections 1.4-1.5). (Solutions)
-
Assignments for September 30 quiz.
(There will be no September 30 quiz, but at least one test problem on
October 2 will resemble one of these.)
- Introduction to derivatives (Sections 2.1-2.2).
- Derivatives (short of chain rule) (Sections 2.3-2.5, 3.3).
- Assignments relevant to October 7 quiz.
- Chain rule practice (Section 2.6).
- Implicit differentiation problems (Section 3.1) (Solutions)
- Assignments relevant to October 14 quiz.
- Related rates, Taylor and Maclaurin polynomials, analysis of functions (Sections 3.4, 9.7, 4.1, 4.2). (Solutions) Note: There was a typo on an earlier version of this assignment. In the problem with the differential equation, you should take the Taylor polynomial at t=0, not t=1.
- Assignments relevant to October 21 quiz. The assignment on
curve sketching (1 problem) will be collected on October 21.
- Curve sketching (Section 4.3, drawing heavily from 4.1 and 4.2) (Solutions)
- Optimization, Newton's method (Solutions)
- There will be no October 28 quiz, but at least one test problem on October 30 will be like one of these.
- Assignments relevant to November 4 quiz.
- Assignments relevant to November 11 quiz.
