Chapter 3 Section 6 and 7

Here are the notes for Section 3-6.  I am going to briefly go over this topic but not spend a lot of time on it.  You will need to know the rule and use it however it is very similar to sections 3-1 to 3-4 so it should be easy to understand.

Section 3-7 is all real life applications of the differentiation rules.  This will be the majority of tonight's class.

Chapter 3 Review Sections 1 - 4

After the class on Tuesday I am getting the feeling that a few people in the class really get the material and a few people are completely lost.  The rest are somewhere in the middle.  This would not be a huge problem if these first four sections were not as important as they are.

Tonight in class I am going to have you work in small groups on a variety of problems.  This will give you the ability to really understand Differentiation and also practice your Algebra skills in simplifying your work.  I am going to be walking around answering questions and helping with hints as you go along.

I am giving you a ton of problems to choose form and work on.  I do not expect you to complete them all but you should focus on the ones you feel would give you the most trouble.
