Sal working through the 53 problems from the practice test available at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/tg/hs/documents/mathpractest.pdf for the CAHSEE (California High School Exit Examination).

Build your earth science vocabulary and learn about cycles of matter and types of sedimentary rocks through the Education Portal course Earth Science 101: Earth Science. Our series of video lessons and accompanying self-assessment quizzes can help you boost your scientific knowledge ahead of the Excelsior Earth Science exam . This course was designed by experienced educators and examines both science basics, like experimental design and systems of measurement, and more advanced topics, such as analysis of rock deformation and theories of continental drift.
Podemos afirmar sin temor a equivocarnos que un buen curso de Cálculo amplía la visión del estudiante en su campo y en su área de estudio, que no pertenece necesariamente al área de física o matemática, por ejemplo en fisiología para estudiantes de medicina.
El Cálculo Diferencial es el lenguaje en el que algunas leyes de la naturaleza se expresan, por ejemplo: nos permite describir el movimiento y el cálculo de trayectorias en dinámica, nos ayuda a resolver problemas de áreas y volúmenes, a resolver problemas extremales en campos como economía y matemática financiera.
En este curso se presentan los conceptos y demostraciones con extrema precisión y cuidado; se hace énfasis en los fundamentos del Cálculo para que lo que se enseña quede fundamentado y claramente explicado.
Se estudia el cálculo diferencial de funciones de variable real, por lo tanto, se parte de una estructura algebraica de los números reales, Se utilizan conceptos puramente métricos, se introduce el concepto de distancia para explicar que nos vamos acercando a algo, es decir, se define la estructura del espacio métrico que da paso al primer tema sucesiones de números reales continúa con sucesiones convergentes, límite funcional, continuidad y la derivada de una función hasta llegar a problemas de aplicación.
Este curso está en modalidad “self-paced”, es decir, “a tu propio ritmo de aprendizaje”. ¿Qué significa esto? Que puedes empezar el curso cuando quieras y seguirlo a tu ritmo ya que no hay fecha prevista de cierre o apertura de lecciones, no sigue un calendario establecido; los trabajos y exámenes no tienen fecha de inicio o entrega, puedes enviarlos en cualquier momento antes de la fecha de finalización del curso.
Esperamos que este curso de Cálculo Diferencial logre cambiar la percepción de los estudiantes en cuanto a su aplicación e importancia.
How does the final velocity on a zip line change when the starting point is raised or lowered by a matter of centimeters? What is the accuracy of a GPS position measurement? How fast should an airplane travel to minimize fuel consumption? The answers to all of these questions involve the derivative.
But what is the derivative? You will learn its mathematical notation, physical meaning, geometric interpretation, and be able to move fluently between these representations of the derivative. You will discover how to differentiate any function you can think up, and develop a powerful intuition to be able to sketch the graph of many functions. You will make linear and quadratic approximations of functions to simplify computations and gain intuition for system behavior. You will learn to maximize and minimize functions to optimize properties like cost, efficiency, energy, and power.

How long should the handle of your spoon be so that your fingers do not burn while mixing chocolate fondue? Can you find a shape that has finite volume, but infinite surface area? How does the weight of the rider change the trajectory of a zip line ride? These and many other questions can be answered by harnessing the power of the integral.
But what is an integral? You will learn to interpret it geometrically as an area under a graph, and discover its connection to the derivative. You will encounter functions that you cannot integrate without a computer and develop a big bag of tricks to attack the functions that you can integrate by hand. The integral is vital in engineering design, scientific analysis, probability and statistics. You will use integrals to find centers of mass, the stress on a beam during construction, the power exerted by a motor, and the distance traveled by a rocket.

Calculus 1C: Coordinate Systems & Infinite Series

How did Newton describe the orbits of the planets? To do this, he created calculus. But he used a different coordinate system more appropriate for planetary motion. We will learn to shift our perspective to do calculus with parameterized curves and polar coordinates. And then we will dive deep into exploring the infinite to gain a deeper understanding and powerful descriptions of functions.
How does a computer make accurate computations? Absolute precision does not exist in the real world, and computers cannot handle infinitesimals or infinity. Fortunately, just as we approximate numbers using the decimal system, we can approximate functions using series of much simpler functions. These approximations provide a powerful framework for scientific computing and still give highly accurate results. They allow us to solve all sorts of engineering problems based on models of our world represented in the language of calculus.

In this course, we go beyond the calculus textbook, working with practitioners in social, life and physical sciences to understand how calculus and mathematical models play a role in their work.
Through a series of case studies, you’ll learn:
- How standardized test makers use functions to analyze the difficulty of test questions;
- How economists model interaction of price and demand using rates of change, in a historical case of subway ridership;
- How an x-ray is different from a CT-scan, and what this has to do with integrals;
- How biologists use differential equation models to predict when populations will experience dramatic changes, such as extinction or outbreaks;
- How the Lotka-Volterra predator-prey model was created to answer a biological puzzle;
- How statisticians use functions to model data, like income distributions, and how integrals measure chance;
- How Einstein’s Energy Equation, E=mc2 is an approximation to a more complicated equation.
With real practitioners as your guide, you’ll explore these situations in a hands-on way: looking at data and graphs, writing equations, doing calculus computations, and making educated guesses and predictions.
This course provides a unique supplement to a course in single-variable calculus. Key topics include application of derivatives, integrals and differential equations, mathematical models and parameters.
This course is for anyone who has completed or is currently taking a single-variable calculus course (differential and integral), at the high school (AP or IB) or college/university level. You will need to be familiar with the basics of derivatives, integrals, and differential equations, as well as functions involving polynomials, exponentials, and logarithms.
This is a course to learn applications of calculus to other fields, and NOT a course to learn the basics of calculus. Whether you’re a student who has just finished an introductory Calculus course or a teacher looking for more authentic examples for your classroom, there is something for you to learn here, and we hope you’ll join us!

Calculus One is a first introduction to differential and integral calculus, emphasizing engaging examples from everyday life.
Calculus One is a first introduction to differential and integral calculus, emphasizing engaging examples from everyday life.
Calculus Two: Sequences and Series is an introduction to sequences, infinite series, convergence tests, and Taylor series. The course emphasizes not just getting answers, but asking the question "why is this true?"
This is an undergraduate course on differential calculus in one and several dimensions. It is intended as a one and a half term course in calculus for students who have studied calculus in high school. The format allows it to be entirely self contained, so that it is possible to follow it without any background in calculus.
18.014, Calculus with Theory, covers the same material as 18.01 (Single Variable Calculus), but at a deeper and more rigorous level. It emphasizes careful reasoning and understanding of proofs. The course assumes knowledge of elementary calculus.
