We will use this space to post various items that may come up during the term, like exam study materials or links to useful resources.

Practice problems for the last third of the course

  • 14.1. 32–33, 45–50, 61–66;
  • 14.2. 5–22, 39–41;
  • 14.3. 3–4, 10, 15–24, 31–34, 53–62;
  • 14.4. 1–6, 11–18;
  • 14.5. 1–12, 21–30, 45–54;
  • 14.6. 7–26, 30–34, 41–46, 54–60, 63–64;
  • 14.7. 5–20, 31–38, 41–46;
  • 14.8. 3–14, 21–23, 31–36.

This is a long list of problems, so you don't have to do all of them. The list should give you a general idea of what you're expected to know, although there may be exam problems that aren't exactly the same type as the problems in this list. The final covers things from throughout the course, and for the other two thirds of the course you can revisit the practice problems from past midterms.

  • 12.1. 11–20;
  • 12.2. 15–26;
  • 12.3. 2–32, 39–44;
  • 12.4. 1–12, 27–36;
  • 12.5. 2–12, 19–40, 71–74;
  • 13.1. 21–32, 42–46;
  • 13.2. 9–13, 23–26;
  • 13.3. 1–6, 13–16.
