Page 76, there are four equations, one at the bottom of the first column, and three in the second column. Please replace these equations with these substitutes: V = I * R W = V * I W = I^2 * R W = V^2 / R The second equation is actually unchanged but I am including all four so there is less chance of misunderstanding. The terms I^2 and V^2 use 2 as a superscript.
