Math 116 Homework Problems
Students are required to turn in 2 problems for each 50 minute class
meeting and 3 problems for each 75 minute class meeting, beginning with the
third class meeting. There is a longer
first homework assignment of a review
nature that is due at the second class meeting. This first assigment replicates
the Math 105 final exam. Homework is due
at the beginning of each class meeting. Late homework will only be accepted
with corroborating evidence (doctor visit, etc). These problems are to
be corrected and returned to the students at the next class meeting.
The following problems must be assigned and collected. Instructors will add to
these to get to the daily quota.
