Texts: Calculus, one and several variables, eight edition, by Salas, Hille, and Etgen, (S.H.&E above) together with the included supplement on linear algebra,  Primer for Linear Algebra, by Demko, (D above) and Vector Calculus, Linear Algebra and Differential Froms, by Hubbard and Hubbard (H2 above).

The first third of this course covers  Chapters 10 and 11 of the text, with some material left out, and some additional material, rounding out the covereage of single variable calculus. The remaining two thirds is an
introduction to linear algebra, the theory of linear equations  in sevral variables. This subject is fundamentally important in its own right, and it provides the basis for multivariable calculus, in which non-linear equations
and functions are studied through linear approximation. In this part of the course we will cover chapters 1 and 2 of Hubbard and Hubbard with some parralell and supplementary reading in Demko.
