We went over the homework for a bit, problems with integration. The main issue was more with the negative exponents and some of the algebra involved in the problems. Sometimes in an integration …

We looked at problems with optimization again. They tend to have a similar form. One variable is to be optimized. There is usually a constraint. The teacher calls these primary and secondary …

We started by looking at finding critical numbers from graphs. To get to a maximum, it is increasing to the left since it needs to go up to the max. To get to a minimum it is descending to the left. …
We mostly looked at the recent test from last week. It had problems with critical numbers. Numbers that lead to vertical asymptotes are also critical numbers. The second derivative was also used a …

I would recommend rewriting the expression first. Sometimes if you change how something looks, it becomes easier to work with. Now you can do the power rule and the chain rule. …

We focused on series and sequences and looked a bit at improper integrals. All of these are connected to limits. If something diverges, which is easier to determine than convergence, you simply say …
