Math Precalculus
MATH 130 (Precalculus) Spring 2020
Exam 2 Tuesday, April 7
• The exam should be submitted in full via Gradescope by 11:59PM on Tuesday, April 7. Make sure that for each n, your submission for Question n contains only the work and answers for Question n.
• While the use of notes is not permitted, the use of non-graphing calculators is permitted.
• All work must be shown, and must lead to your final answer, which must be specified by drawing a circle or box around it.
• All numerical answers must be exact. For instance, if 2/5 is correct then writing 0.4 is equally valid, but if 1/3 is correct then writing 0.3 or 0.33 is not. All fraction answers must be in lowest terms.
• All solution sets must be written out in suitable notation.
• Good luck!
