Integration Techniques and Solving DIfferential Equations

This chapter is about different ways to use calculus (both differentiation and integration) to solve problems.  We start by working with Indefinite Integrals (integrals without limits of integration) and move on to solving equations that have derivatives in them.  After working through several integration techniques (analytical, graphical and numerical) we tackle modeling problems that include the derivative.  The syllabus below can change (especially the homework) but it's a start so that you can make sure that you are keeping up.

11/21  6.1  Indefinite Integrals
           HW p.312-314 1-23 odd, 45-47, 52

11/27  6.1  Differential Equations
           HW p.312-315/25,26,31-41 odd,51,53,55,60,61,62,67
11/28  Professional Development Day - no school
11/29  6.2  Integration by Substitution
           HW p.321-322/1-12,15-19,21,22,28
11/30  6.2  Changing limits of Integration
           HW p.322-323/13,14,23-27,29-38,45-48,50,51

12/04  6.2  Separation of Variables
