Let’s have a little chat about the final
The aim of this presentation is to reorient you to some ideas we have discussed this semester so that your time studying can be spent as efficiently as possible.
You will need to know about: 1.Limits 2. Derivatives 3. Derivative applications And you get 1 full page of notes. No big deal, right? I would love to let you use the nspires, but they are just too darn powerful. You’re welcome to use a scientific calculator instead.
What you need to know about Limits
What you need to know about Derivatives
Don’t forget the difference quotient and tangent lines. If you want, let’s make up a problem to try right now.
Name the inflection points, critical points, intervals of increase, zeroes, and intervals of negative concavity.
What you need to know about Derivative applications Related rates and optimization are the big things to look for.
Related Rates
Optimization We can use up to ten square meters of cardboard and want to build the biggest box possible. To do so lets make it an open top box. Determine the dimensions which maximize the volume.
As always, study up the old quizzes and tests. Make sure your note “card” has everything you need on it.
