What is it? | Handed out or posted |
|---|---|---|
| Review problems for the final exam | These are review problems for the final exam, prepared by the course coordinator. | 4/24/2007 |
| The final exam formula sheet | This is the formula sheet will be attached to each copy of the final exam. It is the two formula sheets prepared for the two earlier exams combined. | 4/24/2007 |
| Answers to the second exam | Here are answers to version A the second exam. Please tell me any comments or corrections. Here is a discussion of the grades and grading. | 4/18/2007 |
| The second exam | Here is a version of the second exam, in a somewhat more compact format. | 4/18/2007 |
| Some problems using Taylor's Theorem | These problems should be discussed during the Thursday, April 12, classes. | 4/11/2007 |
| Some review material written by the lecturer for the second exam | Here are some old exam problems on material to be tested for the second exam. There are also answers available. Please let me know if there are any errors in this material. I urge you strongly to try the problems first, and not just "read" the answers. | 4/3/2007 |
| Review material for the second exam | The course coordinator prepared these problems to help students review for the first exam. These problems will be investigated during the Thursday, April 5, recitations. Please attend! | 4/3/2007 |
| Formula sheet for the second exam | Here is a formula sheet written by the course coordinator for the second exam in Math 152. Please note that the four groups of formulas (beginning with the mention of "Taylor polynomial") are not needed for the exam you will see. | 4/3/2007 |
| The fifth workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the fourth problem next
Thursday, 4/5/2007. The approximate value of 2101 has been corrected to
2.54·1030. Thanks
to Ms. Erica Yammer for pointing
this out! The function in this problem is e2cos xcos(2 sin(x)). This is not obvious but I hope to explain it later. You may, if you wish, check this by graphing this function and comparing it to the picture in the problem statement, which is s100. An answer to this problem. | 3/30/2007 |
| Fibonacci numbers | Here is material which may be covered in the lecture of Monday, April 2. These notes discuss how to get an explicit formula for the Fibonacci numbers using power series. | 3/28/2007 |
| Average winning amount | Here is material which may be covered in the lecture of Wednesday, March 28. The notes discuss how to compute the average winning amount which should be the same as the fair entry fee (the "expectation") of a certain coin-flipping game. Some background is given on probability and expectation. | 3/28/2007 |
| "Textbook" problems, due 3/29 | Please hand in problems 1, 3, and 9 from this set of problems (corresponding to 11.7). No written solutions are available. | 3/25/2007 |
| "Textbook" problems, due 3/29 | Please hand in problems 1, 4, and 7 from this set of problems (corresponding to 11.6). No written solutions are available. | 3/25/2007 |
| "Textbook" problems, due 3/22 | Here are some problems due on Thursday, 3/22. The procedures
changed because. The last .001 in problem 2 has been changed to .002: this is what's needed for the solution but I typed incorrectly. Thanks to Mr. KingCheung Cheung for pointing this out! Here are answers, | 3/23/2007 |
| "Textbook" problems, due 3/8 | Here are some problems due on Thursday, 3/8. The procedures
changed because. I changed problem 1 to make 1a and 1d different, since students were nervous otherwise (logically, this could only have helped!). Here are answers, | 3/9/2007 |
| Answers to the second quiz | Here are some possible answers to the second quiz. | 3/1/2007 |
| The second quiz | This is the second quiz given in recitation on Thursday, March 1. | 3/1/2007 |
| Answers to the first exam | Here are answers to version A the first exam. Please tell me any
comments or corrections.
Here is a
discussion of the grades and grading.
[One error corrected so far ...] | 2/26/2007 |
| The first exam | Here is a version of the first exam, in a somewhat more compact format. | 2/26/2007 |
| The fourth workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the first problem next Thursday, 3/1/2007. | 2/23/2007 |
| Some review material written by the lecturer for the first exam | Here are some old exam problems on material to be tested for the first exam. There are also answers available. Please let me know if there are any errors in this material. I urge you strongly to try the problems first, and not just "read" the answers. | 2/16/2007 |
| Review material for the first exam | The course coordinator prepared these problems to help students
review for the first exam. These problems will be investigated during
the Thursday, February 15, recitations. Please attend! The lecturer hopes to post some review material of his own in a few days. Please check back! | 2/14/2007 |
| Formula sheet for the first exam | Here is a formula sheet written by the course coordinator for the first exam in Math 152. Please note that the last formulas, for length and surface area, are not needed for the exam you will see. | 2/12/2007 |
| Graphing calculator programs for approximate numerical integration | Here are a collection of programs for the TI-82/83 and TI-85/86 which compute the Trapezoidal, Midpoint, and Simpson's Rule approximations to the definite integral. | 2/12/2007 |
| The third workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the fourth problem next Thursday, 2/15/2007. | 2/12/2007 |
| Answers to the first quiz | Here are some possible answers to the first quiz. [One error corrected so far ...] | 2/4/2006 |
| The first quiz | This is the first quiz given in recitation on Thursday, February 1. | 2/4/2007 |
| The second workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the second problem next Thursday, 2/1/2007. | 1/29/2007 |
| The first workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the fourth problem next Thursday, 1/25/2007. | 1/18/2007 |
| Information sheet | Information sheet handed out in the first lecture. The embarrassing misprint ("151" on the top instead of "152") has been corrected. | 1/17/2007 |
| I've taught Math 152 a number of times. The most
recent occasion was the fall 2001 semester. Here is a link to the
course material for that instantiation. The material, which is quite
extensive, includes exams with solutions, review material, and a
course diary. Please note, however, that the course described below
was quite different (a small section, not a lecture).
