Problems 1-2
There are many problems throughout the text labeled IN YOUR OWN WORDS. Just relax; do not be afraid
to give your opinion. For the most part, these questions do not have "right" or "wrong" answers.
You should spend about five minutes in answering each of these questions. Note that the
answer e = 2.718281828 for Problem 2 is NOT correct. The number e cannot be represented as a terminating
decimal, so what you see on your calculator is an approximation.
