    Section 1.3: 20, 24
    Section 1.4: 4, 6, 12, 16

    note: If you feel uncomfortable with "word problems", I suggest you read Appendix D and do some additional problems from there. Similarly, if you feel uncomfortable with absolute values, inequalities, intervals, or various formulas relating to distance, points on a circle, etc, read and do some problems from Appendix A.

    note: If you feel uncomfortable with lines and linear functions, look at Appendix B and do some problems from it. Similarly for polynomials and Appendix C, exponentials and Appendix E, Logarithms and Appendix F, and , trigonometric functions and Appendix G.

    Exam 1 Redux Pick up a "clean" copy of Exam 1 from me and redo all the problems neatly and tidily, explaining all your work.

    Note: If the exam points out any sections that students had particular difficulty, I will also assign additional practice problems from those sections.


    That's it for February's assignments.
    Go to the problem sets for March!
