Math 125A Exams
EXAM 1 is Wednesday, January 29, 2014. It will cover handouts, lecture notes, and examples from class, homework assignments 1 through 3, and material from sections 17-19 in the book which was presented in lecture notes through Wednesday, January 22, 2014. Any proof done in class could be asked on the test. This list includes proofs of Theorems 17.2, 18.1, 18.2, 19.2, and 19.4. MOST of the exam questions will be homework-type, classroom example-type, textbook example-type, and practice exam-type questions.
TYPES OF QUESTIONS FOR EXAM 1 (THIS IS SUBJECT TO UNANNOUNCED CHANGES.)
- 1 -- State the In Class Intermediate Value Theorem
- 1 -- Prove a function is or not continuous using definition
- 1 -- Prove a function is or not continuous using epsilon-delta property
- 1 -- Prove a function is or not uniformly continuous using definition
- 1 -- Intermediate Value Theorem problem
- 1 -- Show multiple (up to 3) functions are continuous and/or uniformly continuous using Theorems
- 2 -- Other
- 2 -- OPTIONAL EXTRA CREDIT
HERE ARE SOME RULES FOR EXAM 1.
- 1.) IT IS A VIOLATION OF THE UNIVERSITY HONOR CODE TO, IN ANY WAY, ASSIST ANOTHER PERSON IN THE COMPLETION OF THIS EXAM. IT IS A VIOLATION OF THE UNIVERSITY HONOR CODE TO COPY ANSWERS FROM ANOTHER STUDENT'S EXAM. PLEASE KEEP YOUR OWN WORK COVERED UP AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE DURING THE EXAM SO THAT OTHERS WILL NOT BE TEMPTED OR DISTRACTED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION.
- 2.) No notes, books, calculator, scratch paper, or classmates may be used as resources for this exam.
- 3.) Read directions to each problem carefully. Show all work for full credit. In most cases, a correct answer with no supporting work will NOT receive full credit. What you write down and how you write it are the most important means of your getting a good score on this exam. Neatness and organization are also important.
- 4.) You will be graded on proper use of limit, sequence, and function notation.
- 5.) You are free to use any theorem in the book without proof.
- 6.) If you use a named theorem in the book, you MUST cite the name when invoking the theorem. Common abbreviations are fine (i.e. IMVT for the Intermediate Value Theorem).
