Test 2

I was hoping to have your results today however I got delayed with some other work so I am no unsure of when I will have them (and I won’t make another promise). Not too long hopefully.

Week 11

We did some more examples on area. We had a quick look at volume and then we spoke about applications to work.

Week 12

We will do some more examples on work. We will have a quick section on mean and root-mean-square values and then we will talk about differential equations.

Week 13 – Revision

Tutorial times and venues as normal.

The lecture times will be given over to going over last year’s exam paper. When the paper is completed I will take questions from the class. If there are no questions I will help one-to-one.

Week 10

We looked at scientific notation, unit conversion and logarithms.

Week 11

We will finish our study of logarithms and begin our study of coordinate geometry.

Study

Please feel free to ask me questions about the exercises via email or even better on this webpage.

Test 2

The second 15% test will take today, 4 pm MONDAY 23 November in B263 (Week 11). You can find a sample in the course notes. You will be given from 16.05 — 17.00. You will be given a copy of these tables. Don’t worry I’ll scribble out the “UCC”!

The test will be composed of eight antiderivatives and integrals.

 Week 10

We finished substitution and partial fractions. We started working on area.

Week 11

We will do some more examples on area. We will have a quick section on volume and then we will talk about applications to work.
