Week 9 Tutorial

Questions with “(B)”: are a minimum set of questions to work on. You are encouraged to
attempt (at least) some of them before the tutorial.
Questions with “(A)”: if you find a section particularly difficult, try solving these questions, as
they will help review foundation contents.
Questions with “(C)”: if you find a section particularly easy, try solving these questions, as
they will help master the material.
