- Tuesday, June 5, from 8am-10am, in this room
- The exam is cumulative
- Section 9.3 will not be covered on the Final Exam.
- No calculators
- The topics for the final exam are
- Graphing using transformations.
- Matching a polynomial or rational function to its graph.
- Computing a derivative using the Chapter 4 derivative rules (Linearity, Power, Product, Quotient, Chain).
- Finding the equation for the line tangent to the graph of a given function at a given point.
- Determining regions of increase/decrease, relative max/min, regions of concavity, and inflection points.
- Determining marginal cost, marginal revenue, or marginal profit. (You will need to know these terms!)
- Finding absolute extrema on a closed interval. (This might be a word problem or a business problem.)
- Finding a simple partial derivative two ways:
- Using derivative rules (using the "informal definition" of the partial derivative)
- Using the definition of the partial derivative (using the "formal definition" of the partial derivative).
- Finding a harder partial derivative using the derivative rules.
- Finding higher-order partial derivatives.
Math 163A Section A06 Tuesday, June 5, 2007
- Please don't sit in Row R
- No calculators, notes, or other reference materials.
- Exam is ten problems.
- On problems [1]-[6], you don't need to show work. For these problems, you can do your work on the back of the page.
- On problems [7]-[10], you do need to show work.
- On problem [8], you must use calculus. No credit for just trying a few values of x and y and guessing where the maximum occurs.
- Exam ends at 10:00. Please bring your exam to one of the proctors at the end of the exam. (We will not come to you: too crowded!) Exams not in the box by 10:05am will not be graded.
- GOOD LUCK!
