NOTE: This document only provides the solutions to this exam. It is provided to students so that they can verify
their own solutions after they have worked through the exam independently. In order to earn full marks on exam
questions, students must show all of the work that goes into the solutions, so only providing the solutions is
NOT acceptable. To get a sense of the kinds of shown work that will be required on the exam, watch the
instructional videos at bit.ly/alphamaths.
