1 Math 131, Exam 2- copyright 2008 - Indranil Sen Gupta Exam 2 MATH 131 Version A Fall ’08 Name (printed): On my honor, as an Aggie, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this academic work. Name (signature): Section: Seat #: Instructions: • You must clear your calculator: MEM (2nd +), Reset (7), cursor right to ALL, All Memory (1), Reset (2). • There are 16 questions and 8 pages to this exam including the cover sheet. The multiple choice questions are worth 5 points each, and the point values for the problems in the work out section are as indicated. • In order to receive full credit on the work out problems, you must show appropriate, legible work. • Round to 4 decimal places, unless otherwise stated. • You must box or circle your final answer in the work out section. • If you need more room to work a problem, I can provide scratch papers. Do NOT use your own papers. • Disputes about grades on this exam must be handled the day the exam is handed back and must be discussed before you leave the room. If the exam leaves the room, it will not be re-evaluated (except for possible adding mistakes). GOOD LUCK!
