MATH 150B  CALCULUS
  Fall 2015  



Math 150B, the sequel to Math 150A, is the second semester, five unit calculus course at CSUN.  Topics include logarithms and exponentials; techniques of integration; improper integrals; applications of integrals; polar coordinates; parametric equations; sequencies and series; Taylor series; and indefinite forms.

There are tutorial labs for all sections of Math 150B. Each section of Math 150B has a specific section of Math 150BL attached to it.  The lab is mandatory for all students who earned grades of C-, C, or C+ in Math 150A or scored  a 3 in the AP Calculus AB test. It is also mandatory for students repeating 150B (unless they passed the lab course last semester). It is optional for all other students, but encouraged for everyone. The lab course is graded on a credit / no credit basis.

TEXT: CALCULUS, 7th edition, by James Stewart.  The campus bookstore is selling a special California edition or, alternatively an ebook, but they have all the material of the regular edition even though they should cost less.

TESTING:  There will be two midterm exams, one final exam at the end of the course, and several 20 minute quizzes.  The final exam will be cumulative. The dates of all tests and quizzes will be announced in class.

Final Exam Date: Saturday, December 12, 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.  Sierra Hall 365

GRADING: Each midterm will be worth 100 points, each quiz will be worth 30 points, and the final exam will be worth 200 points.  Class participation will resolve borderline situations for the final grades.  I will assign "+" and "–" grades for this course. 

COVERAGE:  We will cover parts or all of chapters 6, 7, 8, 10 11, and other topics as time permits. 

CALCULATORS: Calculators, cell phones, and any other electronic devices are not permitted for any quiz or exam in this course. 

HOMEWORK: Practice problems will usually be assigned for each section. It is important to complete or at least attempt all problems before the next class meeting.  Tests and quizzes will be based largely on the homework. Students are encouraged  to work together outside of class.
