exam/practice problem#2

(sure would have been better if you could have done this back when this material was fresh)

Hi Dr. Taylor, In this E-mail I've attached pictures of worked problems from exams 1 through 3 that I did not get 100% correct. I've additionally included one or two questions from the practice final that I am not sure if I did correctly. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

********************

this is good, and nice use of white board. I'll be getting to the rest of these bit by bit today. A thought for you and your classmates: these will display on the blog better if you write them so that they can be photographed in portrait rather than landscape mode. As it is, to read this I suggest you right click (control click for mac users) and download.

13.6 confusion

Hello Professor Taylor,

In your 9:45 lecture this past Friday I thought you mentioned you would extend the due date of WebWorK 13.6 from Friday to Sunday at the popular request of the class. I was struggling to meet deadlines for multiple courses last night, so after confirming what I believe I heard in class with another student, I opted not to prioritize the remainder of the 13.6 assignment. As of today the assignment is closed, and is labeled as being due Friday at midnight. I truly hope my classmate and I did not misinterpret your comment in class, and consequently lose our opportunity to finish the assignment. Please clarify your point of view on this situation and inform me of what the outcome will be.

Hello Professor,

This is ********* from your calc 3 class. I was working on Webwork 13.6. and the due date is tonight April 28. This class morning you changed the date to Sunday. Thank you.

Sincerely,

***************

Well, maybe. My recollection though is that I left 13.6 alone and changed 13.7 to allow more time. In any case, since nothing gets done until the last minute, I've changed 13.6 to be due Sunday night as well.

solutions to exams

Hi Dr Taylor,

Could you post the solutions for exams 1-3 for MAT 267 on the blog.

Thanks,

No, because the answers won't help you if you don't do the problems. If you work the problems *again* and send photos of your answer written out on fresh paper, I will discuss your answer and give hints here on the blog.
