Math 103B-1 College Algebra (Part II) Spring 2004
Instructor: Paul Tieslau Required Text: Precalculus 3rd Edition by Sullivan & Sullivan III Optional Text: Students Solutions Manual for Precalculus Class: Mondays and Wednesdays, 4:00 to 5:50pm, room E106 Course Description: This course covers exponential and logarithmic functions, conic sections including circles, parabolas, ellipses and hyperbolas. We will study linear systems, matrices, linear programming, sequences and series, mathematical induction and the Binomial Theorem. Special emphasis will be placed on application problems and the use of the Texas Instrument 89 (TI89) graphing calculators.
Grading Policy: Quarter grades are based on
the following: Quizzes: There will be four quizzes. The lowest quiz will be dropped. Make-ups: If you must miss a test or quiz, let me know ahead of time and well make arrangements. Otherwise you can take a make-up-quiz one class day late for a 20% penalty.
Homework: This will be due the following class session. You must show your work to get credit. The process is more important than the answer. Each assignment is worth 10 points: 5 for completion and 5 for selected problems. Late homework is worth half credit and will not be accepted after one week. Note: If you know youre going to miss class, you can turn in your homework early. Do this on campus in the main lobby, there is a Student Drop Box outside the mailroom. Tutoring: The Gateway Math Center (GMC) hosts free tutoring on a drop-in basis, Mon-Fri 9-6. Learning Disabilities: If you have a learning disability, be sure to
discuss it with me.
