Remember: The text believes that you can think. There will not be an example in the book exactly like every homework problem.

Remember to check WeBWorK to see if you have a prep problem assignment.

Homework rules

Acknowledge your sources (people and texts).
In nontrivial problems, show how you get your answers.
Turn in neat, well-written solutions, not messy first drafts. Trim "fringes." Staple.
Do not copy collaborative solutions; write up solutions in your own words.
Turn in homework on time. Each class day late reduces the possible points by 25%.
Write-up rules include the following.
- Assert equalities. Do not just list expressions. Tell what they are equal to.
- Keep equations balanced. Do not change just one side of an equation, thus making the assertion of equality false.
Do extra credit problems entirely on your own. Submit them separately from regular homework.

All assignments are from Calculus by Hughes-Hallet, Gleason et. al., (John Wiley & Sons, New York, Third Edition, 2001).
