Appendix A. Answers to the Exercise Sets

You’ll find the solutions to almost all of the problems in this text in the PDF file on the CD.

As mentioned at the front of the book, most math books do not provide worked out problems, so the appendix that contains these is presented electronically. The electronic presentation makes it possible to provide step-by-step solutions to the problems rather than just the answers. Also, solutions to almost all of the problems are provided rather than those for just the even or odd ones.

To access the solutions place the CD in you disc drive and follow the instructions. Copying the pdf file to your drive is a good idea.

You can print pages from the PDF file to have solutions ready at hand when you work the problems. Use this approach to start with. It provides you with a comfort zone as you work. As you become more confident, you might then simply view the solutions electronically.
