Remember: Learning mathematics is like constructing a building; it first requires a strong foundation.  We believe that completing all of the problems listed below provides a foundation for understanding the material in that section.  Only the problems in bold red should be turned in.  We strongly suggest working other problems in each section to reinforce these foundations and prepare you for upcoming material.
