Web Page (homework assignments are listed): www.ma.utexas.edu/\~\ friedman \vskip 1truecm {\bf Text and Syllabus:} {\it Introductory Probability and Statistical Applications }, 2nd ed. Meyer, Addison Wesley \vskip.5truecm (This will be published by the University Co-op; the original text is out of print.) \vskip.5truecm Syllabus: Parts of Chapters I-XIV.( Exactly which sections will be covered, depends on how quickly we progress, etc.) \vskip1cm {\bf Prerequisites:} M408C,D or M808A,B including {\it infinite series, partial derivatives, double integrals.} \vskip 1truecm {\bf Exams:} We will have exams on 10/3 (class 10; Tues.), 11/7 (class 20; Tues.), 12/5 (Class 27; Tues.) No ``Final exam" (subject to Dept. approval.). * Exam grades will be scaled (if the unscaled average is $\leq 75$) to some value in the $75$ to $80$ range. {\bf ** Makeups will be given very reluctantly.} \vskip 1cm {\bf Homework:} Homework problems will be assigned each Tuesday in class and will be due the next Tuesday. A serious effort should be made on these exercises. It will probably be difficult to completely learn the course material without working problems; also exam questions may bear some resemblance to homework exercises. Additionally, {\it all homework together will be counted as a grade equivalent to one exam grade.} \vskip 1cm {\bf Final Grades:} In computing a final grade, I will count the three tests (the Final is one of them) and one total homework grade equally. (So there will be {\bf four} grades to average.) \end
