Problem Set 1

These problems are not written to be mathematically challenging. Instead, the main challenge is to find reliable data and use sound reasoning. For each of the problems you work out, provide a list of sources for any data you used. Be sure to mark which course number you are registered for on your solution. You can turn in the homework online (via Stellar) or in class.
