Use suitable fonts no smaller than 12 point (except perhaps for footnotes, references,
etc.). Use at least 1-inch margins all around. Note: all graphics and charts, if any, should be
incorporated (inserted) directly into your paper (on a Word page) seamlessly, not attached
separately in a different format or embedded in a program icon. The paper and all charts should
form a single, continuous Word document (and print out as such). Number (and letter) your
answers to match the numbered (and lettered) questions (e.g., 2b), or lose points. All of your
work must be your own. Show how you calculated numerical solutions, if any, and cite
references for quoted or paraphrased material.
