Calculus I

Catalog description

This is the first course of a three course sequence. The concept of a limit is introduced, and it is used to develop the concepts of continuity and the derivative. These are studied numerically, graphically, and analytically for a wide variety of elementary, and transcendental functions. Applications of the derivative relating to curve sketching, related rates, and optimization are developed. Definite and indefinite integrals, the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, and applications of the integral are also introduced. Pre/Co-requisite(s): Successful completion of MATH 105 or MATH 110 AND MATH 111 or MATH 120 , or by permission of department head.
