This Class will cover various topics of calculus, including:
Taylor series, improper integrals, infinite series, vectors in three
dimensions,
calculus with parametric curves, multivariable functions and partial
derivatives,
and double integrals.
We will begin by studying the following paper:
Taylor
Notes
Then we will study parts of chapters 12, 10, 13, 14, 15 from
Calculus Fifth Edition by James
Stewart
There will be homework due once a week on Wednesday.
There will be four 20 minute quizzes given on various Mondays.
Also there will be one midterm
exam and a final.
The homework will be posted on this site.
The midterm will cover the Taylor Notes and chapters 12 and 10 from the
textbook.
It will be given
on Wednesday, July 20th.
The final will be on the last day of class, August 18th.
A page of notes will be allowed on the midterm and final, along
with a scientific (but not graphing) calculator.
A page of notes will be allowed
on quizzes also.
The grading will be calculated as follows:
- 15% Homework
- 25% Quizzes
- 25% Midterm
- 35% Final
Late homework will not be accepted, but the lowest homework grade will
be dropped.
If the midterm or a quiz is missed because of illness, the final grade
will be
taken as the grade for that test.
A departmental materials website for Math 126 with old exams is
here.
