Homework
I
expect problems to be submitted in order,
including graphs (when applicable). I
recommend you paste graphs into Word or another word processing program to add
appropriate labels and comments.
Homework/labs must always be stapled if it is longer than one page. If it is not stapled, only the first page
will be graded. The first page of each
homework set handed in must contain
the following information:
(1) Your Name
(2) STAT 350 and your section time
(10:30/12:30/1:30)
(3) The number of the homework or lab assignment
(e.g., Homework #2, Lab #6)
Answers with no supporting work will receive zero
credit!
Unless otherwise indicated, assignments are due at the
beginning of class and must be submitted in the section you are registered for!
Grader's Comments on the Homework
Note: For problems with data (lots of numbers), the
data is available in Excel files in the CD that accompanies the textbook.
