Textbook
Technical Calculus with
Analytic Geometry, 3rd edition, by Allyn J. Washington, Benjamin Cummings
Prerequisites
Enrollment in TMTH requires
satisfactory completion of TMTH 1335 and TMTH 1336 or equivalents.
Grades
The test average will count as 80% of your final grade. The homework will count for 20% of
your final grade.
Exams
There will be 3 tests and a final
examination which is counted as 2 tests. You may drop the lowest of the 4 grades, and
your test grade average will be based on the average of the 3 remaining grades. There are no
individual makeup examinations (if you are absent for a test, that test is the
grade that will be dropped).
Homework
You should keep a notebook of homework.
Label the problems with section number, page number, and problem number. Homework will be
graded using homework quizzes. Some homework quizzes are scheduled. Others may be given
with no announcement. All of these quizzes will be based on homework assignments. They
will be open notes and closed book. At least one quiz grade will be dropped in computing
your homework average.
