• Show all work, clearly and iii order, if you want to get full credit. I may take off points if
I cannot see how you arrived at your answer (even if your fiuial answer is correct).
• No calculators/books/notes are allowed for this test.
• Please keep your written answers brief; be clear and to the point. You may lose points for incorrect or irrelevant statements.
• Please turn off celiphones, turn hats backwards, take out headphones and sit every other seat, if possible.
