You may wish to look over the problems before starting work on them, since it is not expected
that everyone will be able to complete all parts of all problems. All problems are given equal
weight, but the parts of a particular problem are not necessarily given equal weight. The
problems are printed in the booklet and in the green insert. When you are told to begin,
open your booklet, carefully tear out the green insert, and start work.
•
You should write all work for each part of the problem in the space provided for
that part in the booklet. Be sure to write clearly and legibly. If you make an
error, you may save time by crossing it out rather than trying to erase it. Erased
or crossed-out work will not be graded.
•
Show all your work. Indicate clearly the methods you use, because you will
be graded on the correctness of your methods as well as the accuracy of your
final answers. Correct answers without supporting work may not receive credit.
Justifications require mathematical
(noncalculator) reasons.
•
Your work must be expressed in standard mathematical
notation rather than
calculator syntax. For example, J15 X2 dx may not be written as fnInt(X2, X, 1,5).
•
Unless otherwise specified, answers (numeric or algebraic) need not be simplified.
If your answer is given as a decimal approximation, it should be correct to three
places after the decimal point.
