If you find that you need help (even changing an answer after you look it up qualifies as help) on more than 25% of these, then you probably should do more homework on that material. Do problems until you feel comfortable doing them with no more help than you will have on the test.

When you finish the chapter, make up a sample test for yourself from the review problems, take it, and grade it. Continue to do that until you are pleased with your sample test grade.

Section 2.3 and problems marked with a G can be done most effectively with graphing technology. Other problems may suggest a graphing calculator, but these problems are types that we have always done by hand or with a scientific calculator.

Chapter P (The problems in this chapter must be completed at some time during the semester. Problems like these will appear on Test 5 and on any other test in which this material was used as you worked through the homework for those other chapters.)

For the official handout for a specific section, refer to the one handed out in class during that semester. The Web version may not necessarily be updated every semester, but I will update it when I make any changes that I consider to be significant.
