Mathematics 221 Syllabus IIIFall Semester 2004Text: G. Ledder, 2005. Differential Equations: A Modeling Approach, McGraw-Hill, New York.Final Exam: A comprehensive final examination is given during final examination week (Dec 13—17) at its regularly scheduled time (see UNL “Schedule of Classes 2004—2005”). You must arrange your personalschedule to permit you to take the exam at the regularly scheduled time. Withdraw Date: Friday, November 12, is the last day to drop the course with a “W”.Holidays: Mon Sept 6 (Labor Day); Mon-Tues Oct 18-19 (Fall break); Thus-Fri Nov 25-26 (Thanksgiving).Computer Lab: Students will be given an account in the Mathematics Department Computer Laboratory in Avery 18. Depending upon your instructor, some work in this course may involve use of a computer algebra system.Calculators: Your instructor will give you information regarding what type of calculator you may need in your section of Math 221. Student versions of CAS (MATLAB, Maple, or Mathematica) are available for purchase in the campus computer shop.Daily Work: The exercises below represent a minimal suggested assignment from the text. Some students may have to work additional problems to master the material. Your instructor may require additional, or different, exercises. The sections of Math 221 are completely independent, so your instructor may change the order of the material, add or delete sections, vary the number and dates of the exams, assign projects, etc. All sections are graded independently and have independent final exams. Topics: The text is flexible and adapts itself to several different course styles. Math 221 covers material in Chapters 1—7 of the textbook. Syllabus I covers the material in the order Chapters 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 4, 7, to get to the phase plane (Chapters 5, 6) quickly. Sections 1.3, 2.1, and 7.5 may be omitted if fewer sections are desired; Section 4.5 and/or Appendix A1may be covered after Section 2.4. An alternate, traditional course described in Syllabus II covers the chapters in order, omitting Sections 1.3, part of 2.1, 5.5, 6.1, 7.5, and covers Appendix A.1 on integrating factors after Chapter 2. Syllabus III orders the Chapters 1,2,5,6,3,4,7, and emphasizes the qualitative aspects of the subject.WEEK OF SECTIONS PROBLEMSAug 23 1.1 p11: 3,5,7,9,12,13a.1.2 p27: 3,9,11,13,14ab,17,19,20,25,27,28,29,31.1.3 p39: 1,3,5,8. p46: 5Aug 30 2.1 p58: 1,7, 13,14.2.2 p72: 1,3,7,15,17,19,23,39.2.3; 2.4 p83: 1,7,11,13. p93: 1,3,11,13,15Sept 6 2.5; 2.6 p106: 3,7,10. p116: 3,6.5.1 p286: 1,3,7,11,12,13,14.________________________________________________________________________Sept 13 5.2 p295: 2—9,12,13,15,16.ReviewExam I________________________________________________________________________Sept 20 5.3 p308: 1,2,5,15,17,18.5.4 p318: 1—15 (odd)5.5 p326: 1,5,7,10,11,12.Sept 27 3.1 p135: 1,7,9,13,15.
