Exam Reviews
- Midterm 1
Review
Note: For the exam, you may bring one 8.5x11 inch sheet of paper of notes (front and back) and a calculator. No other electronics are allowed for any reason during the exam.
- New Problems: Chapter 1 #6, 11; 2.1.1 #1, 6, 7, 11; 2.1.2 # 1;
2.1.3 # 4; 3.1.2 #6
- Problems from Homework to consider doing
again: Chapter 1 #10; 2.1.1 #5, 10; 2.1.3 #5; HW2
A #1-8; 3.1.1 #4, 5, 7; 3.2.2 #1, 5
IMPORTANT NOTE: I will expect you to know how to solve classic algebra and calculus word problems. For example, you need to be sure you remember how to differentiate and find min/max points of a function.
