Material for Test 1
Material for Test 2
The test covers Chapter 14, all sections. In addition to the material indicated below you should also study the questions on the practice exams for Test 1 that you were told to ignore for the first test. You should also study questions 69-74 on p. 782.
You should also know the formula for the second order Taylor series with remainder at (0,0). This is the formula that was used in Example 1 on p. 841. It is likely that I would ask a question like this example. You do not need to know the formula for third or higher Taylor approximations.
Material for Final
The test covers Chapters 15 and 16, all sections. It does not include Section 14.10. In addition to the material indicated below you should also study the questions on the practice exams for Test 2 that you were told to ignore for the first test. I will provide a copy of p. 2 of Practice Final 2a on the final.
I will be in Europe during and after exam week. (I leave on Friday 4/27.) Because of this, I have decided that the final will be multiple choice. Also, the last recitation class will be on Friday, 4/27. There will be no quiz. This class will be used to answer homework questions and for additional review. The last assignment will be due on this day. The official in-class review will be on Thursday, 4/27.
Grading policies
Homework will be collected once a week on Tuesday.
Only 5 problems will be graded per week. Each problem
will be worth five points and so each
homework assignment will be graded on a scale of 0
to 25. The lowest homework score will be dropped
before final grades are computed.
There will be two in-class midterm exams and one final exam.
No notes, books, or calculators will be allowed during exams.
Each hour exam will be worth 100 points, the homework plus
quiz grade will be scaled to 100 points, and the final will
be worth 100 points, making a total of 400 points for the
whole course. The final is NOT cumulative.
