Homework for Math for Business and Economics

Please read Directions for Homework before you start.  If you fail to follow them, your homework will be too difficult to grade and I will have to return it with no grade. 

 

It is extremely important that you do the exercises associated with a section before the next class session, when you will be given a chance to ask questions about them

I will collect and grade your homework every day, after you have had a chance to ask questions about it.  I will choose about 5 problems to grade, at 5 points per problem. You are required to show the work that arrives at the correct answer, even if completed by calculator.  Note that it is your responsibility to make sure you can arrive at the answer shown in the back of the book.  If you are unable to do this, don’t write down an answer.

Following are the exercises to be completed for each section we will cover.  They are found as “Exercises” at the end of each section of the text.
