Distance Students: For each assignment see the corresponding video lectures on your Chapter CD, as indicated by the section number on the link. Note that you should have completed the Orientation as indicated in the early emails you received from the instructor. Be sure to check your VCCS email account regularly.

Note: Since you will be using it repeatedly, you might wish to download the file query_ac2_070113.exe, which is the query program for this course. The file can be run from your Internet browser but unless you have a fast connection there will be a delay as they load.

This program creates SEND files like the ones you have submitted for the Orientation. The SEND file contains in its filename the current date (e.g., 0214 for February 14).

Assignments 0-5: Communication, Exponential and Logarithmic Functions

Assignment 0

Randomized Problems Click on the link. At that site, pick Calculus I, then Introductory Problems. Select a version of First Set and solve, completely following all instructions. Submit your work. After you have received a satisfactory reply from the instructor, do the same for Second Set.

Download the program calculus I q_a_ for reference to some important topics from first-semester calculus.

Within this program, Assignments 11-12 give you the rules of differentiation; assignments 13-15 include applications of integration, tangent lines and the differential; assignment 16 addresses implicit differentiation. Assignments 1-10 introduce you in a unified way to the concepts of differentiation and integration, beginning with the concept of rate of change. Assignment 10 is fairly challenging and introduces the central ideas of integration in the context of finding present and future values of an investment.

Most second-semester calculus students need this refresher on standard first-semester calculus topics.
