Review and Practice Tests

  If you need a "refresher" for your high-school algebra, you might want to look at this review of what you need to know to do calculus. A French version is also available. (Other advice is available on the host webpage.)
You need only look at section 3.

  Assignments and Practice Tests

• Rhoda's Review Assignment [Version with Answers (corrected Q2(g) on 7 Sept 2018)] [Added fuller solutions to Q1 and Q2 9 Sept 2018]
  This assignment was very poorly done - in many cases that would have been avoided if the How to Lose (or Gain) Marks guidelines were followed. Take that as advice for future work, at home and in class.

• Practice Quiz 1
  Practice for your first Quiz (to be held on Thurs 13 Sept !)
  [Hint for #4,6] [Answers] (Answers for 1c and 2g have been corrected)

  Quiz 1A (with answers)   Quiz 1B (with answers) [Typos corrected 14 Sept 2018]

  Assignment 1 (WeBWorK) (with answers)

  Workshop on Related Rates (Answers)
  N.B.Some of the = signs in the answers may look like hyphens - this seems only to affect printed copies (so it's probably just printer-dependant; there is no such confusion in the on-line copy). But if your copy looks "bad", just check Léa for the Stewart solutions I've posted.
  Quiz 2 (with answers)
   
  

• Practice for Test 1 (20 Sept 2018)
  Long Practice Test 1
  [This is very long, but the questions come from old tests so they are good for practice. Answers are not, and will not, be posted for the long practice test. Ask me or see me in office hours if you need help or if you want to check your work.]
  Also, here's a practice test with (roughly) the right length and formatting for a "real" class test, even with marks assigned.
  Practice Test 1   [Answers]
   
  
• Practice for Quiz 3 (25 Oct 2018):
  Practice Quiz 3 (ignore the header saying "Quiz 4"!)
  Note: Page 1: These are all from the exercises in sections 2.5, 2.6; the solutions may be found among the text exercises or here
  Page 2: Some of these have been done in class. The (brief!) answers are here.
  (I've fixed the answer to #3 and verified the answer to #2, even given a hint! - all should be ok now.)
  (I'm having computer problems, and cannot fix the "decorative elements" for this practice quiz. ☹
    "Regular programming will resume as soon as possible!")

  Quiz 3 (ignore the header "Quiz 5" and the 2016 date!) [Answers]

• Practice for Test 2 (1 Nov 2018)
  Practice Test 2 [Again very long, but questions from old tests are good for practice. As with the previous "long practice test", answers will not be posted - ask me if you have questions or need help.]
  Another Practice Test 2 (about the right length for a real test!)
  (For this practice test, you may use a calculator for questions 7-9. The real test will not require - nor permit! - a calculator.)
