Quizzes

There will be quizzes given on a near weekly basis. Quizzes will generally be given in lab section; however, some quizzes will be given as take home quizzes. The quizzes will resemble homework problems which connect or advance important concepts and skills. Work on quizzes is subject to the same rules as on exams.  A take-home quiz is like a mini take-home exam. You must use only the time allotted to complete the quiz, and it must have your signature on it in order to be graded. If you decide to attach an extra sheet to explain your answers, it must be stapled to your quiz. Do NOT staple your quiz back together when you are finished. Quizzes must be turned in at the beginning of the next class. NO LATE QUIZZES accepted.

 Date Assigned Date Due Topic Hint

BONUS 4

 Fri Nov 30 Mon Dec 3 Euler's Method
(solution)		 HINT: Recall that for a function to be  a solution of an IVP it must satisfy the DE and the IC.

10

 Mon Nov 19 Mon Nov 26 Single Variable Optimization

(solution)

 HINT: How do you prove that a function has a global extremum? (Use the first derivative or second derivative test)

9

 Thu Nov 15 Thu Nov 15 Curve Sketching
(solution)		 (in class)

8

 Fri Nov 9 Mon Nov 12 L'Hopital's Rule
(solution)		 HINT: Consider what happens when m=0, m>0 and m<0 separately.

BONUS 3

 Fri Oct 26 Mon Oct 29 Applications of The Chain Rule
(solution)		 HINT: Recall the chain rule is [f(g(x))]'=f'(g(x))g'(x). In related rates problems always notice and make sure the derivatives use the correct units.

7

 Thu Oct 25 Thu Oct 25 The Chain Rule (in class)

6

 Thu Oct 18 Thu Oct 18 Interpreting The Derivative (solution) (in class)

BONUS 2

 Wed Oct 10 Wed Oct 17 Rules of Differentiation (solution) HINT: Recall that f(x)=|x| can really be thought of as a piecewise defined function (when x<0, f(x)=-x, when x>=0 , f(x)=x.)

5

 Wed Oct 10 Wed Oct 17 Derivative Rules (solution) HINT: Recall the rules of differentiation (Product, Power, Constant, Constant Multiple and Quotient).

BONUS 1

 Fri Oct 5 Mon Oct 8 Differentiation and Limits (solution) HINT: Remember the difference of two squares formula: A2-B2=(A+B)(A-B)!

4

 Fri Oct 5 Mon Oct 8 Limits, Derivatives and Tangents (solution) HINT: When the slope of a line A is greater than the slope of line B we can see that line A is STEEPER than line B.

3

 Thu Sep 20 Thu Sep 20 Limits (solution) HINT: An indeterminate limit can often be evaluated by using an algebraic relationship between the numerator and denominator to simplify the expression BEFORE taking the limit. (in class)

2

 Fri Sep 14 Mon Sep 17 Properties of Functions (solution) HINT: the domain of a composite function is dependent on the domains of the two constituent functions, regardless of what the rules of the constituent functions would indicate is the natural domain.
