Objective The course objective is to give to the studient the fundamental on differential and integral calculus, graphical representation of one real variable real functions and their optimization. The course also aims to give to the studient mathematical knowledge necessary for following up the course of statistics in the second year.
Content 1) Limit of a function, operations with limits. Computation of limits of indeterminate forms.
2) Meaning of the derivative of a function. Derivative rules for algebric functions.
3) Derivative rules for complex functions
4) Derivative of trigonometric and inverse trigonometric functions. Derivative of exponential and logarithmic functions.
5) Derivative of parametric and implicite functions
6) Applications of derivative and L’Hospital rule.
7) Graphs of a real function of one real variable.
8) Indefinite and definite intagral of a function. Techniques for finding the indefinite integral of a function.
9) Definite integral – Riemann integral.
Course Learning Outcomes At the end of the course, the studient will,
1) Calculate the limits and derivatives of one real variable real functions.
2) Study the change of real variable real functions and represent them graphically.
3) Determine the equation and discuss the meaning of the tangent to the curve of a function.
4) Solve elementary optimization problems.
5) Calculate indefinite and definite integrals of one real variable real functions.
Teaching and Learning Methods The course consist of passing on student the theoritical concepts with exemples, as well as solving problems in the class related to subjects considered.
In addition, a follow up of students with the support of exemples supplied and homeworks to prepare.
