Some things to think about ...
We have to think about integration as adding stuff up....in this boat problem...what are we adding up...both physically and graphically...

In the review problems that you've been working on, there are 4 of those to try (73-76). If you know how to do them, they literally will take you longer to write the problem then actually complete them.  Test still Thurs]]> 2018-12-10 18:34:34 UTC https://padlet.com/scott_mitter/tz0e662j4ku6/wish/313095186 scott_mitter https://padlet.com/scott_mitter/tz0e662j4ku6/wish/318467364 Today we were exposed to integration by substitution.  A couple of thoughts...deciding what to make u is the hard part (it will get easier)...how do we do a definite integral with u-sub? For HW tonight, start to work on the problems from 7.1 in the book. Don't go past 41...BTW...our book is odd and it uses the letter w instead of u... It's definitely more customary to use u tho...plus...they don't chant w-sub at basketball games...]]> 2019-01-08 18:14:40 UTC https://padlet.com/scott_mitter/tz0e662j4ku6/wish/318467364 scott_mitter https://padlet.com/scott_mitter/tz0e662j4ku6/wish/318930014 More on U-subs today...we also learned the two ways to compute a definite integral using a u-sub.

We had 3 types: non-repeating linear factors, repeating linear factors, and unfactorable quadratics. The non repeating linear can be done with the Heaviside shortcut (even if you have 3 factors and an A B and C...the shortcut is done the same way). HW is in the folder in week 22. Enjoy the cold day

If we are going to "stack like library books" the pieces will be dx thick...If we are going to "stack like pancakes" the pieces will be dy thick. You always "stack" perpendicular to the axis of rotation.
