JUST A MINUTE — PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW FIRST
1. Write your name, AUB ID number, and section number ON THE FRONT COVER
OF THE AUB EXAMINATION BOOKLET.
To remind you, the sections are as follows:
Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4
Recitation F 1 Recitation F 2 Recitation F 12 Recitation F 3
Ms. Zantout Ms. Zantout Ms. Zantout Dr. Yamani
2. PLEASE DO YOUR WORK FOR THE PROBLEMS ON THE CORRECT PAGES
IN YOUR EXAM BOOKLET, as indicated for each problem. If you need more space,
ask us for a new booklet (see point 3 below). Please INDICATE where you have
continued your solution to a problem.
3. Please write your solutions on the answer part of your booklet. Use the back of each
page for scratch work only. If you need an extra booklet be sure to WRITE YOUR
NAME, AUB ID, and SECTION NUMBER on the second booklet AND indicate on
BOTH booklets that you used two booklets total.
4. THE OTHER INSTRUCTIONS (f is NEW, review c and e):
a. Explain your steps precisely and clearly to ensure full credit. Partial solutions will
receive partial credit. Each problem is worth 12 points, and there are 11 problems
for a TOTAL 132 points.
- Do as much of the exam as you can, and budget your time carefully. THE PROB-
LEMS ARE ARRANGED ACCORDING TO THE CHAPTERS COVERED IN
THE BOOK (i.e., chapters 2, 4, 6, 7, 8); just because a problem comes later does
NOT mean that it is harder than the earlier problems.
. If you cannot do a certain integral, just leave it as an integral in your solution for
partial credit on the rest of the problem.
- No calculators, books, or notes allowed. Turn off and put away any cell phones or
beepers.
. Problems 5 and 6 ask for series solutions. For full credit on these problems, you
need to give a formula for the coefficients. However, just like in Quiz 2, you can
get almost full credit if you give the first FOUR nonzero terms for any solution.
. REGARDING COMPLEX SOLUTIONS: For full credit, the solution to a differ-
ential equation should involve real numbers only. However, if you are short on
time, leave the solution in complex form — you’ll still get most of the credit on
the problem.
GOOD LUCK!
(Remember, each problem is worth 12 points for a total of 132)
