HOMEWORK
MTH 254 - Winter 2005

Ground Rules

Problems given by number refer to the optional text, Multivariable Calculus, by McCallum, Hughes Hallett, Gleason, et al (MHG). A copy of this text is on reserve in the library.

It is your job to explain your work to me clearly and completely. Here are some guidelines:
You may discuss homework problems with anyone you wish, but should explicitly acknowledge having done so.

Assignments

The Exercises at the end of each section in MHG are an excellent skills check, and the Check your Understanding questions at the end of each chapter are an excellent review. These problems will not be listed separately below, but you should attempt as many of them as you feel is appropriate. Solutions should not be turned in, but seek help if you have any questions.

Due 3/8/05
Do the suggested problems in the Study Guide for Lessons 21 and 22.
These do not need to be turned in, but be prepared to work similar problems during recitation.
These problems are from Stewart, not MHG.
