MA 205

This applications-oriented course presents the basic concepts and techniques of differential and integral calculus. The topics include those covered in a traditional Calculus I and part of a Calculus II course. Discussion will focus on functions, limits, derivatives, rules of differentiation, the first and second derivative test and curve sketching, exponential and logarithmic functions, integration, and applications of integration. An appreciation of calculus as an important tool for solving real-life problems will be emphasized throughout.
