Textbook: Calculus, Early Transcendentals by Jon Rogawski
This
is a list of homework problems section-wise. Attempt the homework problems
as soon as the section is covered in the lectures, you are required to
turn in these attempts in the recitation. In the recitation, I'll
address your questions from the homework and have a quiz at the end of the
session.
Homework won't be graded for correctness. I'll just check to see if you
have
attempted the problems. This is a measure to force you to write more math.
Quizzes
The next quiz is on Wednesday December 3rd and
will cover sections 16.3-16.5
. This will be the last quiz of the semester.
Maple
In the first recitation on Sept 3rd, we did Maple lab 0. This will be the
only in-class Maple lab. You are not required to turn in this work.
However, there'll be four graded Maple labs in the semester. So, you are
advised to familiarize yourself with Maple as much as possible by going
through the worksheets handed out for lab 0. You can also access the
sheets here - Maple Lab
0.
If you weren't present in the first class, print out the 4 sheets
(playing with arithmetic, algebra, calculus and graphs) and then work
through them. The page on 'General introduction' gives you instructions on
how to start Maple on a windows machine in a Rutgers computer lab.
