Instructions:

Complete the solutions in the space provided. If you need additional space, simply include an extra
page in your exam packet with the work; place it immediately following the problem. Circle or otherwise
enclose your final solutions. The clarity of your mathematical analysis is an important part of your work;
unclear analysis or missing intermediate steps can lead to loss of credit even if your solution is correct.
This exam is open book and open notes. You are free to use a calculator.

In the exam, you will occasionally see words in bold, underlined text telling you the way you MUST solve
the problem to receive credit. I expect all your answers to be supported mathematically.

Academic Integrity Statement:

The work on this exam represents my efforts. From the start of the exam to the end of the exam, I did
not communicate with any student or outside party. I understand that exams without a signed
academic integrity statement will receive a grade of zero.
