Math 116 - Homework

This document is valid only for Math 116 sections taught by Mr. James Jones


Introduction to Homework

The following is a list of assigned problems for Math 116, Intermediate Algebra, using the text College Algebra, third edition, by Larson and Hostetler

These problem sets may be modified as the instructor feels is necessary. It is the individual student's responsibility to know what is assigned.

The student is to have each paper with their name and the section number in the upper right hand corner. All problems are to be graded by the student using answers in the textbook. Use a red pen to grade and mark each correct problem with a check and each incorrect problem with an "x".

At the beginning of each problem set, indicate how many problems are correct and the percent correct. Only consider the odd problems (answers are in the back) when calculating this. Write this as a fraction in the upper right hand corner. Then convert this to a percent and circle the percent. Convert the percent correct to a score based on the following scale:

+2
80% or better correct
+1
between 50% and 79% correct
+0
less than 50% correct

The totals for each section are to be recorded on another piece of paper and included with the homework when turned in. Homework is due the day of the exam over the corresponding sections.

Given below is the section number and assignment for each section. The number of problems in each section is included in the printed version of this document given to each student at the beginning of the semester.

Only the odd problems need worked unless stated otherwise. The student should read each chapter summary and do each chapter test as needed.

The "Warm Up" problems for each section should be done before the lecture for that section.
