    Due Tuesday 1/29
    PS 1: Individual Assignment

    Section 1.1: 5, 7, 9, 11, 12, 18, 21, 37, 38
    Section 1.2: 4, 12-19, 28, 41, 49, 51-53, 55, 57, 58


    Due Tuesday 2/5
    PS 2: Group Assignment

    Section 1.3: 1, 11-14, 16, 25, 28, 37, 38, 42, 43
    Section 1.4: 11, 16, 17, 19, 42, 45, 48, 51, 52, 54, 56, 59, 61
    Note: For those of you who've had some Calculus before: It is crucial that you master the graphical idea of the derivative, as this is what the derivative really is. Please only use ideas learned so far in this class, even if you've learned ways that seem simpler in some other class. (Don't worry, we'll get there too, when the time is right and we're ready to see where it all comes from.)


    Due Tuesday 2/12
    PS 3: Individual Assignment

    Note: Again, for those of you've learned a bit of Calculus before: continue to only use ideas we've learned in this class so far to work on these problems, as the intent is to help you really make sense of what's going on with the derivative.

    Section 1.5: 23, 25, 30, 35, 46
    Section 1.6: 7, 8, 11, 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, 28
    Section 1.7: 6, 15, 16, 17, 18, 26, 27, 30, 31, 32


    Due Monday 2/18
    PS 4: This assignment will not be collected, but it will be covered on the exam.

    Section 2.1: 11, 12, 21, 29, 37, 38, 40-42, 44
    Section 2.2: 10, 14, 17, 19-21, 24, 25, 27-29, 32, 33, 36, 46, 47, 49


    Due Tuesday 2/26
