Chapter 1 Review Problems, pp. 70-75:

  1. Solutions for Chapter 1 Review Problems are on reserve at the library. Correct the review problems that you handed in last week. Make comments on your paper in another color pen or pencil, or on a separate sheet. Make some notes to yourself on these problems that you'll find helpful if you ever need to do these sorts of problems again (perhaps on an exam.) (20 points).

Computer Problems:

  1. Do problem 7 from chapter using the "solve" command on Maple. Print out your work. (10 points) Here is a short introduction to Maple's solve command.

Bonus.

  1. 2.3. 32, 33
  2. The focus on theory chapter on differentiability and linear approximation looks quite good. Local linearization is a very handy thing to have a feel for; we used it a bunch in Physics II last year. Problems 11-13 on page 143 look especially good.
