Homework Problems:
Appendix
A:
*There
are more assigned problems in the appendix than there will be in most
later sections. It is very important to solidify your background in
basic algebra, so I strongly suggest you work all of these problems.
Because this chapter is review, most of the problems should not take
much time to complete.
