APSC 112 Midterm Examination #1 March 4, 2010

TEST FORM: A

BEFORE BEGINNING the examination do the following (using a #2 pencil):

1. Enter your student number (ID number) on your SCANTRON form. 2. Enter your exam TEST FORM (A) on the SCANTRON form.

Read the following instructions

Use #2 pencil only - make dark marks. Erase completely to change an answer. Approved “gold” calculators may be used. Notes or books are not permitted. A set of formulae sheets is attached to this examination paper.

The examination is 90 minutes in duration.

ATTEMPT ALL QUESTIONS: THEY ARE OF EQUAL VALUE THERE IS NO PENALTY FOR INCORRECT ANSWERS: CHOOSE THE ‘BEST’ ANSWER.

This could be “B”
