Text:
Single Variable Calculus (5th edition) by James Stewart.
Content:
This is the first of a two-semester sequence in differential and integral calculus. In the first semester, the following topics will be covered:
Ch. 1 Review: (1 week) Functions, graphs, composition of functions, and trigonometric functions.
Ch. 2 Limits: (2 weeks) Tangent and velocity, limits of functions, continuity, general rates of change.
Ch. 3 Derivatives: (3 weeks) Derivatives of elementary functions, derivatives as functions, differentiation formulas, applications, derivatives of trig functions, chain rule, implicit differentiation, and higher derivatives.
Ch. 4 Applications of Differentiation: (2-3 weeks) Maxima and minima, the Mean Value Theorem, derivatives and graphs, limits at infinity, optimization, antiderivatives.
Ch. 5 Integrals: (2-3 weeks) Areas, the Definite integral, the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, indefinite integrals, substitution.
Ch. 6 Applications of Integrals: (2 weeks) Areas, volumes, volumes by cylindrical shells.
Classes: Class time will be a mixture of lectures, discussions, working problems, and group work. You should prepare for each class by reviewing the material already covered and by reading ahead in the text. In addition, you should work as many of the problems as possible-more than are assigned by your professor. In class, you should speak up with your questions and comments. If you need additional help, see your professor or your TA.
Attendance: You are expected to attend all classes (subject to the attendance policy outlined in the catalog). All varsity athletes should discuss possible conflicts with their professor, agree on resolutions, and sign the form provided by your coaches.
Calculators: There will be no graphing calculators allowed on exams.
Make-Ups Exams: Make-ups will be allowed in emergency situations only. If at all possible, notify your professor of the emergency prior to the exam.
