Calculus with Applications 10th Edition by Lial, Greenwell, and Ritchey. You may buy a hardcopy of the textbook packaged with MyMathLab and an e-book, or you may purchase only the MyMathLab Supplement with the e-book. The bookstore offers both options, but be aware each student must have his or her own access code to MyMathLab in order to complete homework assignments. Our course name is Math 20Z1 and our course ID is Mattern36033.

A scientific and or graphing calculator is highly recommended. Any calculators capable of performing symbolic algebra or calculus computations are prohibited. Students will be allowed to use a calculator on all quizzes, exams, and assignments but please note that the instructor may ask for all work to be shown in order to receive full credit.

Description: Fundamentals of Calculus II is the second course in a two course sequence. The underlying applications of integral calculus will be investigated along with some methods for doing multivariable calculus (chapters 7 – 13). The topics will include, but not be limited to, basic integration, u-substitution, integration by parts, improper integrals, various topics of integration including probability density functions and differential equations and multivariable functions with multivariable calculus. If time permits, we will also investigate a few topics related to sequences and series. The understanding will be discovered and shown via mathematical modeling of real world situations. An emphasis will be made to understand these new concepts graphically, numerically, verbally, and algebraically.

Homework: Homework will be completed online using MyMathLab and posted every tuesday after class. Each assignment is due one week after it is assigned. Homework is assigned to help you practice for quizzes and exams. In addition, homework is an easy way to boost your grade.

Quizzes: There will be weekly, graded quizzes at the beginning of every Thursday class (excepting 08/07). Students will be quizzed on material that has been covered since the last quiz. There will be a total of 5 quizzes. The lowest quiz score will be dropped from the student's quiz average at the end of the semester.

Midterm Exams: There will be 2 midterm exams:
