New Post (It's a Good One)

I've added a new post on the way I explained to my lab sections about writing repeating decimals as a single fraction. Thought you might like it.

Start studying for the test Now-test 4 practice test with key

Hey everyone,
It's time to start thinking about taking test 4.  It's coming up on March 31st. Since final exams are also coming upon us very quickly, I encourage you to take your exam 4 early.  Please do not wait. Take it early and then you can start studying for your final exam which is worth more of your grade.

Here's a copy of a practice test 4-fall 2009. Please start working through it.

Here's the key for this practice test. Use this wisely.  It can be a great resource or aid while you are studying, but before you look at this, please try the test first.
This is the key for test 4 fall 2009.
