  • The problems you work on WileyPlus will be very similar to these.
  • When WileyPlus asks about one part of a question, you should look at -- and be sure you can answer -- the other parts of that question.
  • Be sure you can work these problems. The exams will require you to show all of your work.

12 Dec 12 Dec Final
Exam
Chapters 1 - 6 (comprehensive)
  • The final exam is comprehensive, but will place an emphasis on the most recent material.
  • As you study, try to identify the main themes: limit, derivative, and integral. Applications of these main topics are also important.
  • The best way to prepare for the final is to study old homework assignments and old exams.

Notes:

  • Maple worksheets (.mw files) should be downloaded to your local computer (I recommend creating a folder called, say, MapleFiles.)
  • Portable Document Format (PDF) files are viewable with Adobe Reader Download Adobe Reader .
