I have posted a corrected version of the solutions to Homework #10. In the solution to Rosen, Section 8.4, p. 291, #8, three occurrences of the exponent 5 have been corrected to the exponent 1109.

The final exam for this course will take place on Thursday, December 13, 2001 from 3:30-6:00 pm in room MATX 1100 (the Math annex buliding).  Please make yourself aware of the university's Rules Governing Formal Examinations.  In addition, the following rules will be in effect for our final exam:

• You will not be allowed to leave the exam room at any time before you have finished the exam.
• You should bring a pen and your student ID to the exam.  (Pencils are fine for the exam itself, but you must fill out and sign the cover sheet in ink.)
• No calculators, notes, or other aids of any kind will be permitted.
• You will need to place all books, papers, and other articles at the front or back of the room (not at your feet).  This includes small boxes or other containers for pens, etc.  You may retain valuable articles (e.g., purses) nearby but not within reach.
• Cell phones and pagers must be turned off and placed out of reach.
• Exposing your examination booklets, even inadvertently, to any other student in the room is a violation of the rules; it is considered a collusive act and will lead to the immediate expulsion of all involved from the examination room.
