Suggested Exercises for Math 101
In order to be prepared for each of the chapter examinations, students
should do all of the exercises listed below. In cases where a range
of exercises is given, students should do at least all the odd exercises
within that range. Students should also do each chapter test in the
textbook before attempting the chapter examination in class.
All exercises are listed from the textbook Intermediate Algebra, Second
Edition, by
John Tobey and Jeffrey Slater.
