Math 1050-001,  Summer 2001

• Code Name:  If you have already supplied one in Test 1, ignore this.  You will be asked to supply a code name.  Your code name will be used for posting grades on the course web page.  If you do not supply a code name, your grades will not be posted.
• Calculators will be allowed.
• There are 8 questions in Test 2; two of them have multiple parts.
• You must show all work for full credit.  Providing only the answer will score no points.
• The total number of points in the test is ??  It will be graded out of ??  (Check back later).

Sections:    2.7, 3.1 - 3.5, 7.1 - 7.3, 8.1
For Section 3.5, you are only responsible for exponential growth, exponential decay, and logarithmic models.
 

Important topics:

• Decomposition of rational functions into partial fractions.
• Exponential & logarithmic functions:  definition, properties, graphs.
• Solving equations involving exponentials and logarithms --- exploiting the fact that they are inverses of each other.
• Word problems involving exponential and logarithmic functions.
• Types of solutions of systems of linear equations.
• Solving systems of linear equations --- in "equation" notation and matrix notation.
