Classwork, Test Prep and More...

Folks, your classwork that should be completed over the break is #6, 7, 11 and 12 from Ex. 1.3 of your textbook. As for question number 2, which was cause for much confusion in the classroom, I am posting a link below where you can view the solution.


Moreover, you have to study and practice for the following topics in preparation for your test on Wednesday, 23rd October, 2013. 

  • Sets
  • Kinematics (which includes concepts and skills of integration and differentiation
  • Exponential and Logarithmic Equations
  •  Linear Law

You can use this post to discuss questions with each other.

Question 32 from the Related Rates problem set I gave you in class. 
(I know I had made you circle 31 but instead I want you to do 32.)

Tuesday, May 21, 2013

Homework Due Wednesday, 22/05/13

So your task is to do question 27 from the Related Rates problem set that I gave you in class. Below are a few tips to keep in mind while writing all the information that the problem gives you.

  • Mark all the quantities that are changing, i.e. variables, and those that are fixed. 
  • Redraw any diagram for yourself so that you can label things and makes sense of them.
  • Identifity all the rates given to you and the ones you can find and write them in Liebniz's notation. 
Don't forget that in these problems you're gonna need to use ideas or theorems that you've learned before!
