Have we learnt how to solve this problem using the method described in the first solution? If so, where in our notes/textbook did we cover this?

MAT244 Math--Lectures / Integration Techniques to Know for Test #1
« on: October 06, 2014, 09:10:30 PM »
-Basic anti-derivatives
-Trig Integrals
-Partial Fraction
-Integration by parts
-Inegration by substitution

Are there any other techniques you would suggest brushing up on Dr. Irvii? I skipped first year math due to a transfer credit, so my skills are a bit rusty, but I wanted to make sure I covered everything.
Thanks :)

MAT244 Misc / Variation of Parameters vs Undetermined Co-efficients

Do you care which method we use to solve a question? I prefer the former, as it is less guess work, but I wanted to make sure that if we just wanted to use one to solve questions that is fine

Will test #1 be similar to previous years, where all the questions will be computational (no proofs)?

MAT244 Misc / Quiz #1 Error
« on: September 24, 2014, 10:36:58 PM »
Hi,
I was wondering if it would be possible to look at maybe discounting the first quiz that we took today. A error with one of the problems was announced at the very end of the alloted time, and in the end we were given maybe 5-7 minutes extra to work on the problem with the correction that was given. For myself, since I spent the majority of my time on trying to figure out the problem (albeit unsuccesfully due to the error), I had virtually 5 minutes in the end to now do 2 problem in a span that was extremely short. I understand that errors do occur on quizzes and tests, but I feel like in a situation like this, where we have time constraints and the like, that this quiz was extremely unfair. As a result, I think we should either take our best 4/5 quizzes or simply discount this quiz for this reason.

Thanks.
