Before you work on this homework assignment it is recommended that you participate in or watch the webinar on this chapter, read the material on this chapter from the textbook and ask your instructor, a tutor, or fellow students for help when there is a concept that is unclear to you.  If you are not sure how to solve any of the problems, go to the "hint", "textbook pages" or "example videos" for further clarification on the topic.  

Please answer all the questions on this homework assignment.  You will be able to retake it as many times as you wish before the due date and only your highest score will be included in your course grade.  When the question asks you to round to two decimal places, you must.  For example if the calculation produces 2.4589 and you put in 2.4589 then it will be counted as incorrect.  You would have to enter 2.46 to get the question correct.  The purpose of this assignment is to learn the concepts and not to just get the answers correct, so please make sure you fully understand the concepts before moving on.

Good luck!
