HW#7

On the blue homework sheet that Mrs. Carlson handed to us at the beginning of the year, the problems are #49, 51, 53, 54, 57, 58, 64 wc, (67). On the edline page, however, it says to do #49-63 odd, 64, (67). I was wondering which assignment we are to follow. I was thinking maybe it was supposed to be the assignment from the homework sheet, because Mrs. Carlson said before that all of the assignments on Edline were from last year, so maybe she changed the problems. And also, do we have to do the graphs for number 64? That's a TON of graphs! Thank you!

HW # 6 or 8

Mrs. Carlson
I was wondering if our homework was HW #6 or #8 because someone wrote HW#8 on the board, but shouldn't the next homework be #6?
Thank-You

Question on today's homework

Hi Mrs. Carlson,
I was wondering if we had to do (a) graph for #s 5 & 7, and, if we do, do we have to do it on graph paper?
Thank you

Opener Solution

I'll have it posted on edline for a day only.
Please read the comments.
I'm now VERY tired.
It is waaaayyyy past my bedtime.
See you guys in the morning.

I'm a little worried...

I've only graded a handful of openers from today. I am seeing some scary things on the papers.
Here are some things I need to set straight:

1. Identify the test you use!
2. The Ratio Test only works for series with POSITIVE terms. Otherwise, you must use the Ratio Test for Absolute Convergence, which means you need the absolute value bars over everything.
   
3. You can NEVER get a negative value after using the Ration Test. Why? See #2 above.
4. The Ratio Test is INCONCLUSIVE when the limit = 1.
5. The Alternating Series Test is INCONCLUSIVE if it fails.
6. You do NOT want to compare 1/(ln(k+2)) to 1/k. This does NOT compare well. But you CAN compare it to 1/(k+2).
   
7. When checking the endpoints, simplify before you do anything. It will make it so much easier to figure out.

I don't know...I have to get back to grading those. I am dreading it...I hope they get better.

Solutions to HW #17 FRQ

Mrs. Carlson
Is it possible for you to upload the solutions to the FRQ today, so we can have an additional day to review for the test.
Do we only have to do the three problems or do we have to do the supplemental problems too?

Solutions to HW12?

Are there solutions online for HW12 for LCT and DCT, not "Ch 9 HW#12" for Integral Test and P-series?

HW #11

Hi!

I have trouble with #6 and # 9 on HW #11. Can someone help me?
For #6 are we allow to use p-series test? I try p-series and it converges.
On #9. I use L’Hopital’s Rule and I found out that it also converge. Does anyone know if we can actually use that rule? It wasn’t not the sheet though.

Updated Course Expectations

I've updated it for 2nd semester. If you bring it in signed by Monday, Feb 4th, the first day of second semester, I'll give you 3 extra-credit points. I know it's not much, but I'm not asking for much either. Otherwise, I'll be giving you a copy in class on Monday. They are due no later than the end of the week.
I've also added in a "Dear Mom and Dad" letter. I simply want you guys to take a look at it so that you're aware of what it is and what it looks like. You do not have to bring that signed. Not unless you anticipate on doing something (or not doing something, for that matter) to warrant one.

Have a good 3-day weekend! [I wish I had one...]
See you next week.

Mrs. Carlson
