See Canvas —> MATH6055 —> Assignments, for more information, including sample tests.

Week 9

We drove into Chapter 4, with a revision class on differentiation, then talking about transforms, and then functions of several variables and partial differentiation. We should have been able to look at applications of partial differentiation to error analysis, but unfortunately nobody told me our Friday lecture venue was being used for the MTU Open Day, and we lost out on a class.

Week 10

We will look at applications of partial differentiation to error analysis. Then we will look at parametric differentiation.

The tutorials will again be focused on Chapter 3. We might get some tutorial time on Chapter 4 in lectures.

Week 11

We will hopefully finish Chapter 4 by looking at Related Rates and Implicit Differentiation.

Week 12

We will finish the manual and then start revision.

Students will receive one-to-one help in tutorial, but it will be up to students to decide what they want to look at; be it Vectors, Matrices, or Further Differentiation.

Students who don’t know what to do might be invited to look at the exam paper at the back of the manual.

Week 13

We will have all classes scheduled up to and including 12 December. These will all be tutorials

Tutorials

The most important thing in your MATH6040 world is to attend tutorials regularly.

If BioEng2B students genuinely cannot make the Friday tutorial, they may come to the BioEng2A tutorial at 3 pm on Wednesdays in B260. This can continue as long as the number of students in that tutorial stays at 20 or below.
