Math 0220 Schedule and Practice Problems

Note: This schedule is a guideline for a MWF-50 minute class. Those sections meeting two times a week will be making the adjustments necessary to cover the same topics within the semester. 


In the first two weeks, students should be able to identify the indeterminant limit of type zero/zero and algebraically determine if the limit exists by analytically evaluating whether the limit from the right equals the limit from the left. If the limit of a function f(x) exists at x=a and if that limit is equal to f(a), this should be the accepted (sufficient) definition of continuity. They should be prepared to identify and transition many of these limits as the definition of the derivative of a function at a point or a rate at a given time.

Limits involving infinity
ed 1: 1.6 Number 1-5, 9, 10, 13-31, 38, 39, 43, 45
ed 2: 1.6 Number 1-5, 9, 10, 13-33, 40, 41, 47, 49

Derivatives and rates
ed 1: 2.1 Number 1-20, 23-37, 41-43
ed 2: 2.1 Number 1-22, 25-30, 43-45

Derivative as a function
ed1: 2.2 Number 1-12, 17-23, 27-31, 33, 39, 40
ed2: 2.2 Number 1-12, 19-25, 33-37, 41, 45, 46

Derivative formulas
ed 1: 2.3 Number 1-26, 29-44, 49-52
ed 2: 2.3 Number 1-28, 31-46, 51-54

Products and quotients
ed 1: 2.4 Number 1-30, 33-36, 41-44, 46, 51, 52
ed 2: 2.4 Number 1-30, 33-36, 41-44, 46, 47, 48

Chain Rule
ed 1: 2.5 Number 1-40, 43-50, 57, 58
ed 2: 2.5 Number 1-48, 51, 53-56, 63

By the end of the fourth week, students should have the basic derivative formulas memorized and demonstrate the abilty to apply the product and chain rules when differentiation functions.
