Announcements

  • The final exam is in-class on Wednesday Dec 20 – see below for a list of topics/exercises to review
  • I will be in my office (N724) most of the day Tuesday grading your Exam #3’s. You can drop by if you want to pick up your exam, and/or go over any topics/examples for Wednesday’s final.  I plan to be there 10a-3p.
  • I may also have some office hours Tuesday evening over Blackboard Collaborate (time TBA)
  • I reopened a few WebWork sets, as people were asking me for a chance to complete exercises they didn’t get to earlier in the semester–I reopened sets that may be useful as review for the final exam: “Substitution”, “Area Between Curves”, “Volumes of Revolution”

Topics

I outlined the topics/exercises from the Final Exam Review sheet you should review for the final:

See below for a text version of this outline, which includes a list of relevant midterm and quiz exercises to review for each topic.

We went through examples of integration by parts and improper integrals:

We also introduced power series, for which we use the Ratio Test to find “the interval of convergence” (the x-values for which the given series converges). There will be an exercise on power series on the final exam, but I will count it as extra credit.
