Hints for answering problems correctly:
--- You may need to use a calculator to compute a numerical answer.
--- Basic symbols are + (plus), - (minus), * (times), / (divided by),
^ or ** (to the power), sqrt (square root)
--- WebWork recognizes "pi" and "e" (unless the problem demands a numerical
answer). Example: the area of a circle is pi*r^2 (or pi r^2, or pi*r**2,
etc.).
--- Be sure to parenthesize correctly! The expressions a/b+c and a/(b+c)
have different meanings: 6/2+1 = 3+1 = 4 but 6/(2+1) = 6/3 = 2.
