Math 1520: Important Handouts to download for Saturday's Exam Prep Seminar

Published: Fri, 10/21/16

Location has changed to the University of Winnipeg,
Room 3C01 on the third floor of Centennial Hall.
Here is a map of the campus. Centennial Hall is behind the castle-like building you can see from Portage Ave.  Centennial Hall is marked as building C on the map.  Click here.

Of course, U of W is quite accessible by bus as well.
Things to bring to the seminar:
Please note that this seminar is actually following the Math 1500 syllabus, but everything discussed in this seminar is also relevant to Math 1520.  Math 1520 students will just get to leave about an hour early when I proceed to topics not in their course.

Besides your usual note-taking materials, do note that I will be going through a selection of exam-like questions drawn from the relevant lessons in my Calculus for Management book, so please bring along whichever edition of my book you have.  If you do not have a copy of my book, please download this handout which contains the questions I will discuss (I will not do every question in this handout, but will do as many as time allows):

These two links are pdf files you can download where I demonstrate precisely what I would write if I were answering Examples 1 to 3 and Lecture Problems 1 to 14 in the Limits Lesson on an exam.  Practice writing your solutions to limits the same way.

This link is a pdf file you can download where I give you the "template" how to check continuity at x=a.  Start every step exactly as I have written it (except replacing the "a" with the relevant number in your problem), then fill in the blanks with the specifics for your problem.


This link is a pdf file you can download where I demonstrate precisely what I would write if I were answering Lecture Problems 1 to 3 in my Continuity Lesson on an exam.  Practice writing your solutions to continuity the same way.
Audio teaching the first 3 lessons in my
Calculus for Management book
I will not be discussing these 3 lessons at the Calculus seminar this weekend, but Lessons 2 and 3 especially, are important lessons to study in preparation for your midterm exam (Cost and Revenue, Logs and Exponentials, and Interest problems).  Do note that I give these lessons as free samples of my book and audio.
