| The last writeup | 4/17?/2008 | |
| How to gamble | This is a handout I linked last spring in Math 152. It substantially covers the "gambling" material I discussed today in class. | 4/23/2008 |
| Answers to the second exam | Here are answers to version A the first exam. Please tell me any
comments or corrections. Copies of the answers will be returned with
graded exams in lecture on Monday, April 21. Here is a discussion of the grades and grading. | 4/20/2008 |
| The second exam | Here is a version of the second exam, in a somewhat more compact format. Graded exams will be returned in lecture on Monday, April 21. | 4/20/2008 |
| A problem about the ERROR BOUND for Taylor polynomials | This is a better and more complete treatment of the example I tried to show in class during the review session on Wednesday, April 16. I wanted to emphasize that just checking endpoints of intervals in order to get estimates of K's was not sufficient in the absence of additional logic. | 4/17/2008 |

| A second quiz | This is a quiz which was given on Thursday, April 3. | 4/7/2008 |
| The seventh workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the second problem on Thursday, April 3. If you do it correctly, there is not much "math" in this, so you can concentrate on making the writeup comprehensible and interesting! | 3/28/2008 |
| The sixth workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the fourth
problem on Thursday, March 27. A similar problem was
analyzed in class (see here) and
there's also a discussion in the text (EXAMPLE 3 A
mixing problem, on p.547 in section 9.5). Please follow this link for an apology and a modification of this assignment. | 3/13/2008 |
| A quiz | This is a quiz which was given on Thursday, March 6. You must be able to do such problems. The initial integral is a sum of simple powers of x. The second question is copied directly from a problem "early" in a textbook problem collection. Skills with algebra are needed. | 3/13/2008 |
| Answers to the first exam | Here are answers to version A the first exam. Please tell me any
comments or corrections. Copies of the answers will be returned with graded exams in lecture on Monday, March 1. Here is a discussion of the grades and grading. | 2/29/2008 |
| The first exam | Here is a version of the first exam, in a somewhat more compact format. Graded exams will be returned in lecture on Monday, March 1. | 2/29/2008 |
| The fifth workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the first problem on Thursday, March 6. | 2/29/2008 |

| The fourth workshop |
Please hand in a writeup of the second
problem on Thursday, February 21.
To the right is a picture of the specific f mentioned in part b). Can
you see how 5 and 6 and 7 are hidden in this function?
These numbers are certainly not obvious (at least, I can't "see them"!),
but it is possible to find them with integration (or using
mechanical or electrical or biological devices which are modeled by
integration!). | 2/15/2008 |
| The third workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the fourth
problem on Thursday, February 14. You should have a computational result, the value of a certain limit, and then you should try to explain why the result is correct using intuition. Many engineers will surely see statements equivalent to the conclusion of this problem again and again in applications. | 2/8/2008 |
| The second workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the third problem on Thursday, February 7. | 2/1/2008 |
| The first workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the
third problem on Thursday, January 31. Remember write complete English sentences; check spelling; label graphs; neatness counts; staple if more than 1 page! | 1/24/2008 |
| Information sheet | Information sheet handed out at the first lecture. | 1/23/2008 |
| I've taught Math 152 a number of times. The most
recent occasion was the spring 2007 semester, and, before that, the fall
2001 semester. Here are links to the
course material for those instantiations. The material, which is quite
extensive, includes exams with solutions, review material, and a course
diary. Please note that a different textbook
was used, so course content may not be identical. Also the fall 2001
course was one small section, another source of difference.
