Calculus for the Social Sciences 1
Exam #3
Wednesday, November 29, in class
The third exam covers sections 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, of Chapter 3 and section
4.1 of Chapter 4.
You should go over the homework problems as
well as your class notes. Many of the problems and questions we discuss in
class are excellent examples of test questions. I have also listed some sample
problems from the Section 3.3, Chapter 3 Review, Section 4.1 and Chapter 4 Review below.
You
may bring an 3x5 index card written on both sides to
the exam.
Note: You will be given a scientific calculator for the exam which does NOT
have graphing capabilities so be prepared to answer questions without your
personal calculator.
Cell phones and I-pods are not allowed during
the exam. Please leave them in your room or put them away in your backpack
(make sure cell phones are turned off).
Exam Review: We will review for the exam in Monday class, November
27. Please come prepared with specific questions.

The answers to the odd problems are in the
back of the book. The answers to the evens are:
16. Answer: y’=(y-2x cos y)/(2 cos(2y)-x2 sin y –x)
36. Answer: g''(x)= 2 cos(x) - x sin(x). So, g''(pi/6)= √ 3- [pi/12].
