MATH 220 MIDTERM EXAMINATION OCTOBER 17, 2001Name ID # Section #There are ??multiple choice questions. Each problem is worth 5 points. Four possible answersare given for each problem, only one of which is correct. When you solve a pro blem, notethe letter next to the answer that you wish to give and blacken the corresponding space onthe answer sheet. Mark only one choice; darken the circle completely (you should not beable to see the letter after you have darkened the circle).THE USE OF CALCULATORS DURING THE EXAMINATION IS FORBIDDEN.CHECK THE EXAMINATION BOOKLET BEFOREYOU START. THERE SHOULD BE ?? PROBLEMSON ?? PAGES (INCLUDING THIS ONE).MATH 220 MIDTERM EXAMINATION PAGE 21.
