Homework

Assignment #1--Due Thursday, January 30

3.4: 1,3,5,10
6.1: 2-9
Reading: 3.4, 6.1, 6.2
Not collected: 3.4: 2,4; 6.1: 12


Assignment #2--Due Tuesday, February 4

See handout

Assignment #3--Due Tuesday, February 11

6.3: 5,6,11
6.4: 1,3,6,9,10
Reading: 6.3, 6.4
Not collected: 6.3: 1-4,7; 6.4: 4,5,7,8
Notes: For 6.4 #6, you can use the trick from class where you take logarithms in order to compute the radius of convergence. For 6.4 #8 (not collected), it is a bit of a trick question, the answer is NOT 2! For 6.4 #9, you may use the usual facts about the derivative of the inverse tangent function from calculus.

Assignment #4--Due Thursday, February 27

See handout

Assignment #5--Due Tuesday, March 4

7.2: 6,8

Reading: 7.3, 7.4
Not collected: 7.2: 1-5,7,10,12; 7.3: 4,6,14
Notes: The problem 7.3 #7(a) means prove only part (a) of Theorem 7.3.7. For the not collected problem 7.2 #10, you can use #6 and #8 from the same section to get a short proof.
