INSTRUCTIONS: 1. This booklet has 15 pages and 14 questions. Last page is for rough work. 2. Answer questions in the space provided. 3. Circle the correct answer for multiple choice questions. 4. In Part B, circle the answer either T (for true) or F (for false). If you circle T you must give a reason. If you circle F you must provide a example showing that the statement is false. 5. In Part C, show all work. 6. Calculators, electronic aids and notes cannot be used. 7. Time allowed : 3 hours. 8. Having a phone on your person during the exam is considered cheating. It is irrelevant if you use it or not. You will receive a mark of 0/100 if you are caught with a phone.
