               Math 2110      Outlines
                                      answer to quizzes:  1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,
                                      old exam 1: try doing it yourself as a test.  Answer for old exam 1.
                                      old Exam 2: do it as a test. Answer for old Exam 2.
                                      old final exam and its answer.

                                      1st Exam was on 2/24 (Friday). Here are Exam 1 and its answer.
                                      2nd Exam was on 4/18 (Wed). Here are Exam 2 and its answer.
                                     Final exam: 1. We will have at least 1 problem on either divergence theorem or Stokes theorem in the final.
                                                         (the old final did not have it, because there was not enough time to cover such topics).
                                                         2.  Orthogonal and scalar projections (p.706-708, text) will not be in the final.

                                      old final exam and its answer.


                                      1st Exam was on 3/5 (Mon). Here are Exam 1 and its answer
                                     2nd Exam was on 4/23 (Mon). Here are Exam 2 and its answer.
                                     Final exam: There will be 6 questions. The weight of the exam will be on the later chapters, especially the joint distribution.
                                                          For Chapters 1 and 2, we will concentrate of problems on coin tossing, dice rolling and balls drawing.
                                                          Multinomial distribution (Section 1.5) may be in the exam, while Section 1.6 will not.
                                                         For a binomial r.v., you need to remember its probability mass function, expectation and variance.
                                                         For a Poisson r.v., you need to know its probability mass function.
                                                         A good source for review: re-do quizzes and exams 1 and 2, and the old exams.

                                                         Material NOT in the exam: Section 1.6 and Poisson process.
