Ch 7 - The Indefinite Integral and Differential Equations

Just as we sometimes want to know the slope of a curve at a certain point (call it the definite slope), we also want to know the formula to calculate the slope of a curve anywhere - the slope formula (call it the indefinite slope). The same goes for the integral.  Chapter 6 was on the Definite Integral and Chapter 7 is on the Indefinite Integral.  We will learn how to find it algebraically, graphically and numerically (of course). The algebraic portion will take some time and you will be subjected to almost daily quizzes to make sure you are getting it.

Note:  We will not be able to finish this chapter before Christmas break.
