Test Week
This seems to be test week for me at UCF. I’ve already got a take-home test that is due Monday for Proof and Logic that I’m not worried about. I haven’t started it yet, but I did look at the questions and there was nothing in there that gave me pause. I should make a very good grade on it.
I took my first test in Matrix and Linear Algebra on Monday. Surprisingly, it was only 4 questions and there were no adjugates on it. Another question was solving 3 equations with Cramer’s Rule. That was very easy. The other 2 were solving a matrix via Gauss-Jordan elimination and solving a matrix via upper and lower triangle decomposition. I’m pretty confident on the LU triangular one and so-so on the Gauss-Jordan one. Hopefully I’ll get my test score back tomorrow but it’ll probably be Monday.
No test has been announced yet for my Probability class.
And that leaves Differential Equations. The test will be given this coming Tuesday and will consist of 9 questions. They will cover seperable, exact, linear, and Bernoulli differential equations, only one of which will be an initial value problem. Also on the test will be my ability to determine the linear dependence or independence of a group of functions via their Wronskian. I do not have good feelings about this test but will study as much as I can until Tuesday going on the belief that I can do good.
Probably not though…
