1 Exam 2 Istructios Remove this sheet of istructios from your exam. You may use the back of this sheet for scratch work. This is a closed book, closed otes exam. You are ot allowed to use ay materials other tha the exam istructio sheet, the provided formula sheet, ad a calculator. The exam cosists of 25 questios. Make sure that you have a complete exam. Studets are ot allowed to pass calculators back ad forth. There are multiple versios of the exam. It will ot help to copy from the perso ext to you. Each correct aswer is worth 4 poits. If you omit the aswer to a questio you will receive o poits (zero poits) for that questio. If you icorrectly aswer a questio you will receive o poits (zero poits) for that questio. There will be o poits deducted for a icorrect aswer. Guessig the aswer to a questio IS permitted o this exam.
