Homework

General guidelines

• Please write neat enough for me to read what you have written. I cannot give you credit for work I cannot read.
• I use a red pen. Pick another color for your work.
• Show your work in problems with numerical solutions. I find it hard to justify giving you points for problems where you don't justify your answer.
• Circle your final answer if appropriate.
• Use white space to separate different problems.
• Draw a picture if it clarifies your answer.
• Do your own work. It is obvious when you copy problems from other people and it violates the college academic honesty policy.
• Come see me or ask me in class if you have questions. I'm here to help!
