Prerequisites
High-school level mathematics.
Objectives
a) Consolidate and expand students' knowledge of mathematics;
b) Know and apply the basic foundations to the mathematical procedures used in the curricular units of course;
c) Interpret data, formulate and solve problems related to differential and integral calculus.
Program
1.Real functions.
2.Differential calculus - definition, differentiation formulas, derivatives and its application (related rates, extreme values, extremum problems, graph of a function).
3.Integral calculus - indefinite integral, definite integral (calculation of an area of a region between two graphs, volume of a solid of revolution and length of a plane curve), improper integral.
Evaluation Methodology
Mid-term assessment: three written tests (0-20 points, with a minimum of 5 points);
Final assessment: written exam (0-20 points).
Students pass if they obtain a minimum grade of 10 points (out of a 0-20 scale).
