Vectors
Ive decided we will begin the year reviewing what we started in Chapter 10 of the BC text on vectors. For the first semester
of MVDE, we will cover multivariable calculus using the older edition of the BC text. To start, we will quickly review the
sections we covered on vectors and then finish chapter 10 before continuing on to Chapters 11 through 14. I encourage you to
spend some time reviewing your notes from the first four sections we covered on vectors.
Calculus Review (40 homework points)

The following pages are a collection of first year calculus problems taken from UC Berkeley Math 1A and 1B exams. Some
will be basic review, and others will be challenging; overall, they provide a good review of the calculus you learned in BC, so
take your time and do each problem carefully and neatly on separate paper. I encourage you to find a partner or group of
classmates to communicate and/or meet with to discuss and work on the problems that follow. Your work will be due the first
week of school after weve had time to go over any problems you have questions about. Use your notes from BC or any other
appropriate resource available to you. And no, these problems DO NOT REQUIRE A CALCULATOR, so you are expected
to submit work that reflect your own efforts. FYI, I will be grading your work for effort, quality, and accuracy.
Finally, if you have any questions about anything, email me. Ill get back to you as soon as I can. Otherwise, enjoy the rest of
your summer and Ill see you in late August! GO BEARS!!!
