Rapid Recall 
1. Find the area of a parallelogram whose edges are the vectors $(-1,3)$ and $(4,2)$.
Solution
Remember the formula $A=|ad-bc|$. Here we have $(a,b) = (-1,3)$ and $(c,d)=(4,2)$, so we get $$A = |(-1)(2)-(3)(4)|=14.$$
2. Fill in the missing pieces in $$\int_{-1}^{2}e^{5x}dx = \int_{?}^{?}e^{u}(?)du.$$
Solution
Note that $u=5x$ so we have $du=5x$ or $dx=\frac15 dx$. In addition, when $x=-1$ we have $u=-5$, and when $x=2$ we have $u=10$. This gives $$\int_{-1}^{2}e^{5x}dx = \int_{-5}^{10}e^{u}(\frac{1}{5})du.$$
Solution
We have $dv = 3u^2du$. This gives $dx=2du+dv = 2du+3u^2du$ and $dy=du-2(3u^2du)$.
4. Continuing from above, give a vector equation of the tangent line to the curve $v=u^3$ in the $xy$-plane at $u=2$.
Solution
Note that $u=2$ means $v=8$, so we have $x=2u+v=12$ and $y=u-2v=-14$. We also have $\frac{dx}{du} = 2+3u^2 =14$ and $\frac{dy}{du}=1-6u^2 = -23$. The line passes through $(12,-14)$ and is parallel to $(14,-23)$. The requested equation is $$(x,y) = (14,-23)t+(12,-14).$$
