These are some practice problems for the final. They are not meant to indicate the length of the exam,
nor are these the exact questions that will be on the exam. Review your old exams and make sure you
can do all the problems on them as well. The more problems you practice, the better you will do on the
final.
See the formula sheet for the formulas that you need to know!
