9.1-9.2, Due on 21 October

The most difficult part of the reading was understanding what an image is.  I eventually realized it is just the value that you get when you plug something into a function.  The way the book stated it was not the most clear to me.  Example 9.1 was also a little difficult to understand.  I thought they were talking about related functions, when they were just giving a list of examples.

The most interesting thing was mapping.  I remember hearing mapping a lot especially when doing triple integrals.  We would either map a function to a plane, or map it to polar coordinates so that we could do the integral.  It wasn't too hard once we got some practice with it.
