Student Guide:

Section 8.3 covers an application from Physics: Center of Mass. The topic starts with a summation of discrete data and eventually replaces the summation with an integral. As always, the most important thing here is understanding the process of modelling a problem with an integral.

Differential Equations. The notation and terminology are introduced in Section 9.1. Building a differential equation from a written description of a situation is discussed. General Solutions and Initial Value Problems are contrasted. Population growth models may be discussed.
