Math 122 Summer 2018 Final Exam Notes

Where & When:

The final exam is Thu June 21 1:00-4:00 in Buiding 360 Room 324 (our regular classroom). Note that the exam ends at 4:00 pm, one hour later than our usual class time.

What to Bring:

Bring lots of pencils, pens, erasers, a watch, a ruler, and your student ID. Do not bring scrap paper as it will be provided. You will be given a copy of the standard formula sheet.

Calculators are not permitted. Cell phones, music players and other electronic devices must be put away during the exam and may not be used as clocks. Also, packs and bags must be placed at the front of the room during the exam, so avoid bringing valuables with you to the exam.

Extra Practice:

The final exam is comprehensive, and so may include any material covered since the first day of the course.

You must of course know your basic derivative and antiderivative rules. In addition to reviewing your class notes, quizzes, tests, and previously assigned homework, you should prepare by solving lots and lots of review problems. Listed below are some old sample exams and additional problems to give you extra practice on a broad range of topics. Note, however, that these sample exams are not meant to suggest in any way that your final exam will be similar; your exam may be different in both format and content.

IMPORTANT: Beginning 2016 a new comprehensive treatment of Taylor and Maclaurin polynomials was included in the course and the old final exams listed below do not cover that material to the same degree as on your upcoming final. As such, be sure to review the material in the supplementary notes on Taylor series.

Sample Exam 1 (omit questions 1, 2(a), 9(c) & 12(a)) (solutions)

Sample Exam 2(omit questions 1, 7(b), & 8(a)) (solutions)

Sample Exam 3 (omit questions 1 & 9(b); note that calculators were permitted back in 2008) (solutions)

practice problems (omit problems 1-6, 12, 19, 23, 28-31, 33, 34, Simpson's Rule part of 39, 42, 43, 49, 53(b), 54-56, 59, 63-65, and note that there is a typo in the answers: the answer for 52(c) should be (-1/2)ln|cos(2x)|+C). Many of these problems are somewhat more challenging than the standard homework but serve as excellent practice for the final exam (thanks to Dr.V. Watts for these.)
