III. Page 304 - 41

Reading assignment for Monday: Read 6.1

 NOTE 1: There will be a retake of Quiz 2 during the first 10 minutes of class on Monday.  If you are satisfied with your grade on Quiz 2, then show up 10 minutes late. There will be 2 questions as before, but on Question 1, I will ask you to state both Fundamental theorems.  Question 2 will be to prove one of the two fundamental theorems.  You don't have to give justifications for everything, but if you use some theorem (eg the mean value theorem), you should say so.  Also if you say that a limit is equal to something, you should say why.  Also I may have written something like "hypothesis" when I graded question 1.  This means that you should give the hypothesis of theorem as well as the conclusion.  That is, state the theorem as If...... Then.....

 NOTE 2: Since we are having a test on Thursday, this weekend would be a good time to review what we have done.  You could use some of the exercises in the review exercises, page 306, as practice problems.
