Math 169 Precalculus Fall 2005

Exams

A rather long list of problems to try as you review. Lots of odd-numbered problems, a bunch that were in homeworks, etc. I tried to pick problems that I thought would cover lots of things that are nice test-like questions. (Also, I believe working on a lot of problems is probably the best way to study for this exam.)
Some review questions for exam 2. and solution sketches (as I get them done)..
Review questions for exam 1. Please note that I intend this to be very helpful for preparing for the exam, but I can't guarantee that it is the only way you should study -- in general, do more and more and more problems, checking them with me or the math lab or the TAs.
Sketch of solutions for these problems.
Exam 1 corrections strongly encouraged to be turned in by October 27.
