Math 215.01, Spring Term 1, 2021 Final Exam Information and Review
The final exam for Math 215.01, Spring Term 1, 2021 is open book and open note, including problem sets and writing assignments. The learning goals for the class will be reflected in our exam: good writing and correct use of definitions, quantifiers, and mathematical logic. The problems on the exam will be much like our problem sets and writing assignments, but we will not repeat exactly the problems we have already worked in class, in our book, or in our homework.
The final exam is Tuesday, March 23, 9 a.m. — 12 p.m. (CDT). (We change to Daylight Savings Time on Sunday, March 14.) The exam will be released on Pweb a few minutes before 9. The exam is due at 12:30 p.m. (CDT). The additional 30 minutes is for you to scan and upload your exam to Pweb.
You will write the exam by hand, unless you are more comfortable typing. You are NOT expected to work the exam and then typeset the exam in the three-hour time period.
It is crucial to know the vocabulary for the class; you do not want to use time on the final looking up definitions which you need to work problems. I have listed vocabulary and their associated ideas below to help you review for the exam. Notice that the main result from Chapter 5 is the statement, not the proof, of the Rank-Nullity Theorem.
• sets of numbers: N, N+, Q, Z, R
• even integers and odd integers
• quantifiers
– the role of “there exists” in a definition versus “choose/fix” when using a “there exists” definition in a proof
– the role of “for all” in a definition versus “arbitrary” when proving a “for all” statement in a proof
– how to prove a “for all” statement
– how to prove a “there exists” statement
