Quiz Wednesday

Hi everyone,

We will have a quiz on Wednesday September 7. It will cover equations for tangent lines. I suggest looking at the practice problems from lecture and the WebAssign Assignment Derivatives and tangent lines to help you study.

Sections 1.2 and 1.3 from your textbook may also be helpful.

Best of luck!

Homework due date has moved! Plus: Office hours 1-3 PM Friday

Hi everyone,

I moved the due date for your difference equations homework up to Monday September 5. Start working on these problems soon (if you haven't already). With the practice problems from class fresh in your mind, I think these assignments will go very fast.

Feel free to drop by my office on Friday---I'll be available 1-3PM this week. I'd be happy to make an appointment with you too.  If you can't make it to my office, shoot me an email. I'll be checking my email frequently this weekend.

Best of luck!
