Instructions: You are welcome to use one sheet of notes, but no other references or tools are allowed
(no textbooks, no calculators, etc.). This is a 2 hour exam; you may start working at 8:00 am and must
stop at 10:00 am. To receive full credit for a correct answer you must demonstrate how you arrived at
that answer. To receive partial credit for an incorrect answer your work must be clearly explained.
