Read all of the following information before starting the exam:

• Check your exam to make sure all 7 pages are present.

• You may use writing implements and a single handwritten sheet of 8.5”x11” paper.

• NO CALCULATORS.

• Show all work, clearly and in order, if you want to get full credit. I reserve the right to
take off points if I cannot see how you arrived at your answer (even if your final answer is
correct).

• Good luck!
