Homework

All homework will be found in the textbook, James Stewart’s Calculus: Concepts and Contexts, 4th Edition. Select prompts for each section of homework are listed below.

The homework prompts listed are a starting point to practice the material we learned in class (or from the videos). Some people may feel they need more practice after working through these prompts, and that is great to have that self-awareness! In this case, try some of the even prompts between the assigned odd ones.
