MAT 534 Problem Sets
Algebra I
Fall 2022
|
There will be eleven weekly problem sets collected in the Thursday lecture.
Problems due one week will often practice material covered the
previous week. It is important to do the problems in a timely manner;
do not postpone problems until the last minute.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL LATE HOMEWORK BE ACCEPTED.
In exceptional circumstances such as a documented medical absence,
etc., the instructor will drop the missing problem set and compute the
problem set total using the remaining problem sets.
You are encouraged to work with other students in the class, but your
final write-up must be your own and must be based on your own
understanding. Moreover, write-ups must be legible, etc. Write-ups
which prove too difficult for the grader to read may be marked
incorrect or may be returned to the student to be rewritten.
All questions regarding grading of a problem set should be addressed
to the instructor in a timely fashion.
In computing final grades, only the 10 best problem
sets (out of 11 total graded problem sets) will be used.
In the assignments below, please work through all problems. Only the
RED problems will be graded.
Please direct any
other questions regarding problem sets to your instructor.
