Text:  Applied Calculus for Business, Economics, Life Sciences, and Social Sciences(8th edition) - Barnett, Ziegler & Byleen

Math Help Centre:  It has been organized to help students in solving problems. The schedule of its operation and its location will be posted in the Department.

Assignments:  Assignments reflect the level of difficulty of the final examination. All the solutions to the assigned problems below are available at the Copy Centre in the Hall building on the SGW campus.

Tests:  Two 1-hour tests worth 20% each.  Missed tests cannot be made up

Final Exam:  3 hours, covering the entire course.

Final Grade:  The higher of either:
