Homework assignments will be given out on Thursdays and
are due at noon on Fridays of the following week, in
Marcus Khuri's mailbox
in the math department office.
(The math department office is on the 4th floor of DRL,
at the very end of the "C" wing hallway.)
Staple the pages together.
Leave the top of the front page blank except
for the following information:
your course ("Math 141"), the homework number (say "Homework 12"),
your name (print it).
Write neatly and organize your pages so that we can read them.
No late homework papers will be accepted.
Since there is much material to cover in math 141
and more problems to work through than we have time to cover
in lecture or recitation, we have chosen a list of core problems
to help define the course.
You can find these on page 10 of the Lab Manual or on the WWW at
http://www.math.upenn.edu/ugrad/calc/syllabi/m141.html.
In addition you will find problems from past final exams on
page 261-272 of the Lab Manual. Together, the core problems and
past finals define both the material of the course and the level of
difficulty expected.
Your objective is to understand thoroughly how to solve them and
to develop some facility with the underlying mathematics.
Core problems are odd numbered and complete solutions to all odd
numbered problems are available in the Solution Manual.
Mastering them is an essential first step in doing your homework.
You should first attempt to do them without the Solution Manual,
and then consult the Solution Manual if problems arise,
or to check your answer.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q:
My question actually concerns the grading scheme
for the tests themselves.
What is the curve or are they graded on individual improvement???
A:
Each of your tests is graded on the basis of your
individual performance in the test.
(The copies of your midterms are available here:
Midterm-1,
Midterm-2.)
Indeed, the final total grade will be adjusted
in accordance with the sign and value of the derivative
of your individual improvement.
Q:
I was wondering what the last section will be on the final exam.
The homework goes until 12.7 but do we need to know any later
sections?
How far will the final exam include?
All of chapter 12 and 13 or do we stop at 12?
A:
The Practice Final Exam
could give the right directions to a sort of the final exam problems.
Indeed, take care about the local and global maxima, minima, etc,
and double integrals, - the material covered in the last classes.
