Textbook:
Calculus-Single Variable Calculus Early Transcendentals, 8E, by James Stewart.
You can buy hardcopy, paperback or electronic copy.
Make sure that it includes a WebAssign code for the electronic homework.
If you took Math-150/151 and participated in Immediate Access , you do not have to purchase anything. Your access to the eBook and WebAssign will continue in Math-252.
However, if you did not take Math-151 in Spring 2022 with us or did not participate in Immediate Access, you have the following option: Etext access code - Cengage Unlimited 1 semester access (4 months)--$117.49 [price might be updated]. This option includes Math-252 (calc-III) next semester and any other classes this semester that are using Cengage products.

Online Homework:
All book versions [hardcopy, paperback, electronic] (California Ed.) include a WebAssign access code.
To register into your WebAssign course just click the "WebAssign" tab in your Math-252 in Canvas.
The online (WebAssign) homework will be available through Canvas

Prerequisites:
Math-151 (with a minimum of C [a C- is NOT enough!]) [ see General Catalog ].
Failure to provide prerequisites' documentation will directly result in the student being dropped.
