Math 124, Sections E and G: homework

• Do all of the following problems (including the supplementary ones). Turn in on Tuesday, October 9:
  • Section 1.2: 3, 4, 10, 11
  • Appendix D: 35-38, 65, 66, 75, 76
  • Section 1.3: 6, 7, 35-37, 51, 52, 57, 59, 60
  • Supplementary problems: 1-7 (Click on the assignment to see the problems.)
• Do all of the following problems (including the supplementary ones). Turn in on Tuesday, October 16:
  • Section 1.5: 7, 9, 11, 13,17, 23(a-c), 24(a-c)
  • Section 1.6: 6, 10, 12, 13, 27, 28, 38, 55-57
  • Section 2.1: 2, 4-8

  • Supplementary problems: 1-8
• Here is an extra-credit problem; this is optional. Due Wednesday, October 17.
  • Define tangent line, or the notion of a line being tangent to a curve, without using limits or derivatives. (This means, for example, that ``the slope of a curve'' is not an allowable concept, because it involves the derivative.)
  • You may hand in joint work, collaborating in groups of at most four.
  • Guideline: Be as precise as possible. You should probably avoid words like ``barely,'' unless you carefully explain what you mean by them.
  • Revision: This problem is too hard. So instead, come up with reasonable-sounding definitions of tangent line, and then explain the flaws in each of your definitions. Ask me if you have questions.
• Do all of the following problems (including the supplementary ones). Because of the midterm, this is due on Thursday, October 25. The midterm covers all of this material, though, so you should do the problems before Tuesday. Important: please staple your homework, and write your name and your section on each page.

  • Supplementary Problems: 1-3
• Do these problems by Tuesday, November 20. Because of the midterm, you will not be handing these in. (Do them anyway, because I will put problems like these on the midterm.)
  • Section 3.8: 2-11, 39, 40, 43
  • Section 3.10: 6, 7, 9, 10, 14-16, 18, 21, 25, 26, 29, 32, 35
  • Chapter 3 review (p. 268): do as many of 1-57 as you want to (but skip anything involving "cosh", "sinh", or "tanh"). Also do 79-81, 89-91.
  • Supplementary Problems: 1, 2 (skip problem 3)
• Bonus problem, due Monday, November 26. Follow this link to see the statement of the problem. This problem is for extra credit; it is optional. As with the first extra-credit problem, you may hand in joint work, collaborating in groups of at most four. In addition to your names, please include the section for each collaborator. I've written a solution to the bonus problem (PDF format).
• I returned the graded exams to you on Wednesday, November 21. You now have the opportunity to redo one of the problems you missed on the exam. You can earn as many points as you missed on that problem, but no more than half the total points you missed on the exam. In symbols: if you missed n points on the exam and k points on the problem, you can get up to min(n/2, k) back. (So if your exam score is 86 out of 100, and if you got 9 out of 20 on problem 1, you can redo problem 1 and earn up to 7 points.) Ground rules:
  • This is optional.
  • It is due in your quiz section on Thursday, November 29.
  • You may not work with anyone else on this. If you have questions about the exam, you may ask the professor or your TA, but not TAs or professors from other sections, and certainly not a tutor or friends or anyone else.
  • Redo your chosen problem on clean sheets of paper (don't write the new solution on the exam).
  • Turn in your original exam paper with the reworked problems.
  • You can rework any one problem, and you need to redo the whole problem. (So even if you just messed up at the end, we want to see the whole thing done over. If it's a multi-part problem and you only missed points on one part, then you only need to redo that part.)
  • Write your solutions neatly, and check your work. We'll be less generous with partial credit on the reworked problems than on the original exam.
• Due Thursday, November 29. Please staple your homework, and write your name and your section on each page.
  • Chapter 3 "problems plus" (p. 273): 4, 7, 9
  • Section 3.11: 1-4, 6, 8, 11, 14, 31, 34, 35, 36, 40(a), 42
• Due Tuesday, December 4. Please staple your homework, and write your name and your section on each page.
  • Section 4.1: 6, 31-34, 45, 46, 48, 49, 50, 55, 58, 60, 61, 71, 72
  • Section 4.3: 1, 5-8, 10-14, 17, 18, 22, 30, 58, 60(a,b)
  • Supplementary problems: 1, 2
• Practice problems; do not hand in.
  • Section 4.4: 5, 9, 17,21, 28, 39, 40, 51, 58, 61, 71, 72, 77.
