Homework
Math 20D Spring 2015
Lecture A



There will be (more or less) weekly homework, to be turned in by 7pm on the due date (generally on Wednesdays) in your TA's box in the basement of AP&M. Make sure you place them in the HW box, which has a GREEN LABEL (as opposed to the MATLAB box that has a red label).

The homework will account for 10% of your grade.

The two lowest homework scores will be dropped. No late homework will be accepted. A representative sample of the exercises will be graded. Please observe the following neatness guidelines for homework that you turn in to be graded; homework not conforming to these guidelines will not receive full credit and may not be graded at all. For each homework 1 point is awarded for following these guidelines.
  • Use clean, white letter size paper that is not torn from a spiral notebook.
  • Write your Name, PID, and Section clearly on each page of your completed assignment. (for instance, "Sheldon Cooper, PID: A01234567, Section: A03 2-3pm")
  • Write clearly and legibly.
  • Clearly number each solution and present them in numerical order.
  • Staple the pages togheter.
Students are encouraged to discuss the homework among themselves, but are expected to turn in their own work - copying someone else's is not acceptable and will result in a negative grade for that assignment. UCSD's policy on Academic Integrity may be found here.

Although you are required to turn in only the HW problems listed below, you are expected to do additional problems on your own until you understand the material.

The numbers refer to the textbook. The exercise are assigned from the 10th edition. Using a different edition will result in solving differnet problems, and therefore no credit.
