Limit Problem Set #2 and Test/Quiz (???) on Wednesday

Problem Set #2 is now available.

We will have a test/quiz on Wednesday. Be prepared to discuss what it will include tomorrow.

Please bring any open questions you have up to this point. You can also blog them!

Limits Problem Set #1 - Due Monday

Limits Problem Set #1

Note:

1) On problems 1, 3, 5, 15, 17, 19, 29, 30, 31, 34, and 35, SHOW WORK
2) On problems 13, 27, 28, and 37, Give a clear and concise description of how you found your answer
3) For all others, one of the multiple-choice answers will suffice.

Your blogs should be set up and have the equation editor added to them by Monday as well, including your first post. If you need help with either setting up the blog or adding the equation editor, there are videos under Important Links that (hopefully) should be helpful. Please don't wait until Monday to let me know that something is not working. :)

See you all on Monday morning!

There are two homework sets for this evening:

Infinite Limits
Limits at Infinity

Homework: Larson Calculus 7.0 Section 1.3 #27-36, 67-78. Write in your calculus blogs!

The homework assignment from Tuesday can now be downloaded here.

Limits Power Point Presentation

Please let me know if you have any problems downloading it.

Welcome to the new school year. I look forward to working with you all. It is going to be a great year and we are all going to learn a lot. Better still, it will be over before you know it and you all will be heading off to college. Let's all value the little time we have together and make it a successful year for everyone!

Unfortunately I just realized that I don't have a way to post a file out here that every one can download. So I will just list the five limit problems that I would like you to solve using the Table function of your calculators. How's that?

In case you've forgotten how to do this on your calculator, here is video of one of the problems we did in class today.
