Homework should be turned in at the BEGINNING OF CLASS.
All problem numbers refer to the 4th edition Hughes-Hallett, Gleason, McCallum, et al. book,
the required text for the course. You should write up solutions neatly to all problems,
making sure to SHOW ALL YOUR WORK.
A nonempty subset will be graded. You are strongly encouraged to work
on these problems with other classmates, although the solutions you turn in
should be YOUR OWN WORK.
Note: Please list any students or faculty who you worked with
on the assignment.
Section 2.4 (pp. 91 - 92)
Section 2.5 (pp. 97 - 98)
Note: For problem #16b, "bottoming out" means the stocks price is
declining and is beginning to level out at a fixed value.
Section 2.6 (pp. 101 - 103)
Section 3.1 (pp. 115 - 117)
Hint: For problem #35, simplify the expression first, then
take the derivative. For problem #42, the variables are w and q, so
a and b are just constants. One interpretation of the Leibniz notation
dw/dq is to take "the derivative of w with respect to q."
Thus q is the input (domain) variable and w is the output (range) variable.
