Week 15: Nov. 27
- Review #3 Monday 11/29 in class.
  Covering material on assignments #25 through #34.
  
  Expect 3 pages with space to work on the test and a take home page due Wed.
  Similar to the variety of problems from the homework.
  Notation and showing your work is important, not just answers. In particular:
  
  Show u and du (with change of limits) whenever it is not exactly an antiderivative rule. Exception: a linear u=kx+c, may simply produce a 1/k in the antiderivative, without showing u.
  
  Bring a calculator, especially for numerical evaluation of integrals (by calculator approximation, "hand" trapezoidal rule and/or simpson's rule). Be able to use a online slope field output to draw in solution curve for a given initial condition. Calculator use unrestricted BUT:
  
  Limits and Derivatives and Antiderivates must show "hand" steps and reasoning.
  
  Mark how calculator is used beyond simple number crunching; in particular, mark if you use calculator to graph, solve, or algebra.
  
  Problem instructions may specify "hand" steps or a specific technique or formula.
  While in-class part is closed book, the TAKE HOME part is OPEN BOOK: You are allowed to use of your text book and your notebook of materials of all kinds (including e-files) that you have gathered. You may be asked to use class online Apps and may use Desmos or other online calculator (tell me if you do), though same bullet requirements as above. You MAY NOT get assistance from anyone else or use the internet to research how to do a problem. You may not reference other materials, not gathered in your personal collection before picking up the test.
