MAA 4212, Section 3009 (15179) — Spring 2020
Assignment 3


Last updated Wed Feb 19 19:53 EST 2020


"Virtual" due-date: Tuesday, 2/18/20 (the day before the first midterm).
Due-date for hand-in problems: Monday, 2/24/20.

You are required to do all of the problems below. You will not be required to hand them all in. I have indicated below which ones you do have to hand in on the due-date. Don't make the mistake of thinking that I'm collecting only the problems I think are important.

The "due date" above is the date that your written-up problems should be handed in, but don't wait to get started on the assignment. You should always get started on problems as soon as we cover the relevant material in class.

  • A. Rosenlicht Chap. VI/ 1–4, 7, 8, 10, 12, 16, 17. Of these, hand in only 7, 8, 16. Some notes/comments:

  • B. No non-book problems (yet) other than the ones from my notes ("part C" below).

  • C. In the Notes on Integration, do exercises 6.1, 6.3–6.8 (located on pp. 6–7, 12, 21, 23, 31, and 32 in the Feb. 14 version of the notes). Of these, hand in only exercise 6.6.
        Reminder: Whenever I make a revision that causes a numbering-change or significant pagination-change in material we've already covered, I keep the previous versions of the notes posted on the Miscellaneous Handouts page, in case you're having trouble finding something whose location or numbering has changed. I don't usually change the version-date for minor revisions, such as fixing typos, or for revisions that are further along than wherever we are in the notes.

      Q&A. Below are a question and answer from a previous time that I taught this class. A similar question can occur in many other problems. The answer is always the same (except, of course, for specific reference to the particular exercise).
