| 106 | Bot | In "Try-It #4-9," statement 1 is incorrectly written. It should say that "a" is equal to "b^2." | (1) a^2 = b^2 | (1) a = b^2 |
| 263 | Bot | Question #135 should stipulate that y is a positive integer. | If y^4 is divisible by 60, what is the minimum number of distinct factors that y must have? | If y^4 is divisible by 60, what is the minimum number of distinct factors that positive integer y must have? |
| 169 | Top | The explanation for question #1 incorrectly translates the original question. (5^[3/2])^x became (5^[2/3])^x. The correct answer should be x = 2/3. | 5^(2x/3) = 5 2x/3 = 1 x = 3/2 |
5^(3x/2) = 5 3x/2 = 1 x = 2/3 |

| 168 | Mid | The middle term in question #22 should be 12xy, NOT 12x. | 4x^2 - 12x + 9y^2 | 4x^2 - 12xy + 9y^2 |

| 96 | Mid | Incorrect numbers used in the explanation of statment (1) from Try-It #4-1 | For example, if a = 1 and b = 2, then ab = 2, and if a = 2 and b = 3, then ab = 6. | For example, if a = 2 and b = 1, then ab = 2, and if a = 3 and b = 2, then ab = 6. |
| 98 | Top | The explanation for Statement 2 in question 4-2 gives an incorrect number of Bravos sold. | If there were 40 Alphas sold, there were 10 Bravos sold. | If there were 40 Alphas sold, there were 5 Bravos sold. |
