The final exam and solutions are posted on the Practice Exams page.
Final exam scores and course grades should be posted later today.
Solutions to the practice final are posted on the Practice Exams page.
sunday may 16: There was an error in the solutions to the practice exam. In problem 5, C=-3/2 not -1, so the final answer is y=-ln(3/2-x^2/2).
A practice final exam is posted on the Practice Exams page. Solutions will be posted later.
About 40-50 percent of the final exam will be based on series and power series. The rest of the exam will cover older material. Studying the midterms, practice midterms, chapter 8 review problems, and the practice final would be a good way to begin preparing for the final exam.
The final exam is on Monday, May 17th from 11:00 am - 1:30 pm. Students will take the exam in rooms determined by which recitation section they are enrolled in:
Calculators are permitted, but not required.
Both the midterm and solutions are now available.
The exams are graded and the scores appear on the Exam Scores page. The average over 80.
Correction: March 31: A mistake was made computing the average of the exam scores. The average score is about 75, not 80.
Update: April 13: The exam scores are updated with the corrections. Please doublecheck your score online with your records.
Solutions to the practice midterm are posted on the Practice Exams page.
One note about Monday's exam: as usual, calculators will not be required, but will be permitted.
The math club meets tonite. Mike Chance will be speaking in room 4-125 at 7:00pm. The title of his talk is Rock the vote.
The second midterm will be given on Monday, March 29 from 8:30pm - 10:00pm. It will be proctored in two rooms:
Tutors from the professional and engineering societies of the college of engineering and applied sciences will conduct a review session for the second math 132 midterm. The review will be held Wednesday March 22, from 12:45-2:00pm. I think it will take place in room 145 of the Engineering building.
The second midterm will be given on Monday, March 29 from 8:30pm - 10:00pm. Rooms will be announced later. A practice midterm is posted on the Practice Exams page. Although the practice exam is longer than the midterm will be, it covers most of the material from sections 6.3 through 8.2.
I wrote solutions to the integration worksheet.
The scores for the first midterm are now posted on the Exam Scores page. There were many high scores. The average was 76.4.
The midterm and solutions are available. Exam scores will be posted a little bit later.
Solutions to the practice midterm are posted on the Practice Exams page. There was one typo on the practice midterm: in problem 1a, the limits of integration should have been from 0 to 1, instead of -1 to 1 (h(t) and h'(t) aren't defined for t less than 0.)
February 24 There was a mistake on the solutions to the practice exam, too. The answer to part 1b should be 4/pi, not -4/pi.
A practice midterm is posted on the Practice Exams page. Solutions will be posted later, probably over the weekend.
The practice midterm, like the midterm itself, will cover
You may be interested in the math department's Simons colloquium this week. The subject is The mathematics of Google. The talk is in S-240 at 4:00pm on Thursday. See the abstract for more information.
Also, Scott Sutherland will be speaking about The Cayley-Purser public key cryptosystem at the Stony Brook Undergraduate Math Club meeting at 7:00pm on Thursday evening.
The college of engineering and applied sciences (CEAS) has identified math 132 as a course critical to success in engineering and applied science. CEAS tutors from the professional and engineering societies will conduct exam reviews. A review session for the first midterm will be held tomorrow, Wednesday February 18, from 12:45-2:00pm in room 145 of the Engineering building.
The first midterm will be held on Tuesday, February 24th from 8:30-10:00 pm in Javits center.
The exam will cover material in sections 5.1 through and including 6.2, except section 5.7 which is covered on the integration worksheet instead.
Later this week, some kind of practice exam will appear, but to get started, here are some good test exercises:
The Math Club is sponsering a talk Thursday February 12 at 7:00pm. There is usually some food and drinks. This week, Matthew Kudzin will be speaking on The search for an odd perfect prime. See the abstract for more information.
Stony Brook has site licenses for some excellent mathematical software. In addition to having Mathematica and Maple installed in various computer labs, students can obtain personal copies of either program from Seawolves Marketplace (in the SAC) for $5. Alternatively, one can access the Mathematica Integrator at integrals.wolfram.com, free of charge, from any web browser.
Also, Brooks/Cole, the publisher of the textbook, has a companion website for Stewart's Single Variable Calculus - Concepts and Contexts. It looks like, for instance, there are some online quizzes, if you are interested. I haven't really explored the site, so I can't really endorse it. But, it's there if you want to check it out.
Here is the integration worksheet. It should be turned in to your recitation instructor no later than Friday, February 27th. You may, if you choose, turn it in early, get some right/wrong feedback, and then turn it in again after revising your work.
The math learning center is open for operation. It is located in room S240A in the basement of the Math Tower. It is staffed most days and some evenings by experienced mathematics tutors, including professors, graduate students, and advanced undergraduate students. Students may drop in, without an appointment. Your lecturer and recitation instructor will hold at least one office hour per week at the Math Learning Center.
The hours of operation are: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday 10 - 9; Thursday 10 - 6; Friday 10 - 2
In order to take math 132, you must have passed math 131 with a C or better (a C- is not sufficient), or have recieved a 7 or higher on the math placement exam. The math placement exam is being offered from 7:00-8:30pm in room P-131 of the math building (near the elevator on the ground floor) on Wednesday January 28, Thursday January 29, Monday February 2, and Tuesday Februrary 3.
If you intend to get credit for math 132, please be sure that you have satisfied the prerequisites (especially if you enrolled in math 132 before you recieved a grade for math 131).
Welcome to math 132, Calculus II. The course policies can be found on the syllabus.
Homework exercises and the lecture schedule for the entire semester are on the schedule.
Contact information for the lecturers and recitation instructors is available on the instructors page.
