Homework

Homework will be completed using WebAssign, an online homework system.
You can log into WebAssign through your MA 162 course webpage on Blackboard. You do not need a class key and you do not (and should not) need to create your own account. Use Google Chrome or Firefox to access WebAssign.
You will have two homework assignments due per week, usually due on Tuesdays and Fridays by 6pm. The first homework assignment is due on Friday, January 23, by 6pm. Instructors bear no obligation to answer homework help requests sent after 5:00 pm on homework due dates.

Course Textbook

The official course textbook is the 11th edition of Finite Mathematics for the Managerial, Life, and Social Sciences by Tan. I expect you to read the assigned sections of the textbook and I expect you to work the recommended practice problems from the textbook. However, you are not required to have a physical copy of the text because an e-book of the text is included with your Web Assign account.
