Preface

This is a set ofexercisesandproblemsfor a (more or less) standard beginning calculus sequence. While a fair number of theexercisesinvolve only routine computations, many of theexercisesand most of theproblemsare meant to illuminate points that in my experience students have found confusing. Virtually all of theexerciseshave ll-in-the-blank type answers. Often anexercisewill end with something like, \ ...so the answer isap3 + b wherea=andb=." One advantage of this type of answer is that it makes it possible to provide students with feedback on a substantial number of homework exercises without a huge investment of time. More importantly, it gives students a way of checking their work without giving them the answers. When a student works through theexerciseand comes up with an answer that doesn't look anything likeap3+ b , he/she has been given an obvious invitation to check his/her work. The major drawback of this type of answer is that it does nothing to promote good communi- cation skills, a matter which in my opinion is of great importance even in beginning courses. That is what theproblemsare for. They require logically thought through, clearly organized, and clearly written up reports. In my own classes I usually assignproblemsfor group work outside of class. This serves the dual purposes of reducing the burden of grading and getting students involved in the material through discussion and collaborative work. This collection is divided into parts and chapters roughly by topic. Many chapters begin with a \background" section. This is most emphaticallynotintended to serve as an exposition of the relevant material. It is designed only to x notation, de nitions, and conventions (which vary widely from text to text) and to clarify what topics one should have studied before tackling the exercisesandproblemsthat follow. The ood of elementary calculus texts published in the past half century shows, if nothing else, that the topics discussed in a beginning calculus course can be covered in virtually any order. The divisions into chapters in these notes, the order of the chapters, and the order of items within a chapter is in no way intended to re ect opinions I have about the way in which (or even if) calculus shouldbe taught. For the convenience of those who might wish to make use of these notes I have simply chosen what seems to me one fairly common ordering of topics. Neither theexercisesnor the problemsare ordered by diculty. Utterly trivial problems sit alongside ones requiring substantial thought. Each chapter ends with a list of the solutions to all the odd-numberedexercises. The great majority of the \applications" that appear here, as in most calculus texts, are best regarded as jests whose purpose is to demonstrate in the very simplest ways some connections between physical quantities (area of a eld, volume of a silo, speed of a train,etc.) and the mathematics one is learning. It doesnotmake these \real world" problems. No one seriously imagines that some Farmer Jones is really interested in maximizing the area of his necessarily rectangular stream-side pasture with a xed amount of fencing, or that your friend Sally just happens to notice that the train passing her is moving at 54:6 mph. To my mind genuinely interesting \real world" problems require, in general, way too much background to t comfortably into an already overstu ed calculus course. You will nd in this collection just a very few serious applications, problem 15 in Chapt er 29
, for example, where the background is either minimal or largely irrelevant to the solution of the problem. ix x PREFACE I make no claims of originality. While I have dreamed up many of the items included here, there are many others which are standard calculus exercises that can be traced back, in one form or another, through generations of calculus texts, making any serious attempt at proper attribution quite futile. If anyone feels slighted, please contact me. There will surely be errors. I will be delighted to receive corrections, suggestions, or criticism at erdman@pdx.edu

PRELIMINARY MATERIAL

CHAPTER 1

INEQUALITIES AND ABSOLUTE VALUES

1.1. Background

Topics:inequalities, absolute values.

1.1.1. De nition.Ifxandaare two real numbers thedistancebetweenxandaisjxaj. For

most purposes in calculus it is better to think of an inequality likejx5j<2 geometrically rather then algebraically. That is, think \The numberxis within 2 units of 5," rather than \The absolute value ofxminus 5 is strictly less than 2." The rst formulation makes it clear thatxis in the open interval (3;7).

1.1.2. De nition.Letabe a real number. Aneighborhoodofais an open interval (c;d)

inRwhich containsa. An open interval (a;a+) which is centered atais asymmetric neighborhood(or a-neighborhood) ofa.

1.1.3. De nition.Adeleted(orpunctured)neighborhoodof a pointa2Ris an open

interval aroundafrom whichahas been deleted. Thus, for example, the deleted-neighborhood about 3 would be (3;3 +)n f3gor, using di erent notation, (3;3)[(3;3 +).

1.1.4. De nition.A pointais anaccumulation pointof a setBRif every deleted neigh-

borhood ofacontains at least one point ofB.

1.1.5. Notation(For Set Operations).LetAandBbe subsets of a setS. Then

(1)x2A[Bifx2Aorx2B(union); (2)x2A\Bifx2Aandx2B(intersection); (3)x2AnBifx2Aandx =2B(set di erence); and (4)x2Acifx2SnA(complement). If the setSis not speci ed, it is usually understood to be the setRof real numbers or, starting in

Part 6, the setRn, Euclideann-dimensional space.

CHAPTER 3

FUNCTIONS

3.1. Background

Topics:functions, domain, codomain, range, bounded above, bounded below, composition of functions.

3.1.1. De nition.IfSandTare sets we say thatfis afunctionfromStoTif for everyx

inSthere corresponds one and only one elementf(x) inT. The setSis called thedomainoff and is denoted by domf. The setTis called thecodomainoff. Therangeoffis the set of allf(x) such thatxbelongs toS. It is denoted by ranf. The wordsfunction, map, mapping, and transformationare synonymous. A functionf:A!Bis said to bereal valuedifBRand is called afunction of a real variable ifAR. The notationf:S!T:x7!f(x) indicates thatfis a function whose domain isS, whose codomain isT, and whose value atxisf(x). Thus, for example,f:R!R:x7!x2de nes the real valued function whose value at each real numberxis given byf(x) =x2. We use domfto denote the domain offand ranfto denote its range.

3.1.2. De nition.A functionf:S!Risbounded aboveby a numberMisf(x)Mfor

everyx2S, It isbounded belowby a numberKifKf(x) for everyx2S. And it is boundedif it is bounded both above and below; that is, if there existsN >0 such thatjf(x)j N for everyx2S.

3.1.3. De nition.Letfandgbe real valued functions of a real variable. De ne thecomposite

ofgandf, denoted bygf, by (gf)(x) :=g(f(x)) for allx2domfsuch thatf(x)2domg. The operationis calledcomposition.

For problem

2 , the following fact may be useful.

3.1.4. Theorem.Every nonempty open interval inRcontains both rational and irrational numbers.

A number is anextreme valueoffif it is either a maximum or a minimum value. It is clear that a function may fail to have maximum or minimum values. For example, on the open interval (0;1) the functionf:x7!xassumes neither a maximum nor a minimum. The concepts we have just de ned are frequently calledglobal(orabsolute)maximumand global(orabsolute)minimum.
