Linierazation:
1.determine the equation
2. f(x)+f(x)dx
3.Figure out your dx
4.Figure out your x
5. Plug in everything

Trapezoidal: multiply by delta x/2-
The formula: delta x/2 [f(a) + 2f(a + delta x) + 2f(a+ 2 delta x) + ....f(b)]
For this problem: 1/2 [ f(-3) + 2 f(-2) + f( -1)] and then plug in.


Rules for Limits:…
1. if the degree of top equals the degree of bottom, the answer is the top coefficient over bottom coefficient
2. if top degree is bigger than bottom degree, the answer is positive or negative infinity
2. if top degree is less than bottom degree, the answer is 0


I have been having trouble witht the non calculator test so if anyone has tips thanks

  1. ok so for noncalculator portion you have to remember a lot of the tricks.
    like l'hospitals rules for derivatives approaching zero. & the short cuts to find max/mins.
    remember the
    position
    velocity
    acceleration
    moving down = derivative
    moving up = integral
    also, remember if it asks for the derivative of an integral, it the derivative cancels out the integral.
    just go over a lot of the stuff we did right before brob left. it will help

  2. The only thing I can add to Sarah's hugely helpful list is the trig chart!!! Don't forget it! and keep going over it!
    Also, take your time when doing simple math :)
