H - Honors Precalculus Due 02/11

Due to the postponement of the pep rally, the quiz on solving exponential and logarithmic equations will be Friday, 2/11.

Some review problems. Remember, there are several different ways of solving most problems. If you have an alternative method, let me know and I can check it over. I will also be trying to post some more examples later.
