We reviewed for the upcoming test. Spent some time on basic problems with derivatives. Spent a bit of time on word problems with optimization.
There, for a few problems it involved ‘showing’ that an equation that included the primary and constraint was valid. It involved putting the information from the secondary equation into the primary equation so that you then only had one variable. At that point, you can take a first derivative and optimize.
Didn’t spend as much time on integrals since he seemed more comfortable with them. And at the end, some time on graphing functions based on points, derivatives, and second derivatives.
He should spend a bit of time on that packet before we meet next.
